That's right, but right now, we simply try to register all of memory from
KERNELBASE to high_memory, which works right until we have memory holes in
the middle; then the hypervisor will reject our page registrations. Same
goes for huge (16GB) pages, by the way. We're working on a solution to
this.

Joachim
