QEMU's -m option can take fractional megabyte values,
and lowest granularity seems to be 0x2000.
For example, run qemu with amount of memory set to 100005k (0x61A9400):
$ qemu-system-arm -machine virt -cpu cortex-a15 -m 100005k \
-bios denx/u-boot.bin -nographic
=> fdt addr $fdt_addr
=> fdt print /memory@
40000000
memory@
40000000 {
reg = <0x00000000 0x40000000 0x00000000 0x061aa000>;
device_type = "memory";
};
When LPAE is enabled, 1:1 mapping is created using 2 MB blocks.
In case amount of memory provided to QEMU is not multiple
of 2 MB, hang occurs during MMU initialization.
How to reproduce:
qemu-system-arm -machine virt -m 1058 -nographic -bios u-boot.bin - boots
qemu-system-arm -machine virt -m 1057 -nographic -bios u-boot.bin - hangs

This patches rounds down to the nearest multiple of 2MB when
