So if I understand it right, for example when my first NIC registers
e0000000-e02fffff, then we'll truncate it down to e0000000-e01fffff,
won't that cause any issue, for example if the NIC needs to access
data beyond that limit ?

BTW I can try your patch with the myricom NIC which started to work
when rounding up, I'll quickly see if that fixes the issue as well,
but I'm now a little bit confused.

Regards,
Willy
