This version also fixes SMBIOS, I'm haven't found where grub is getting
it's idea of upper memory yet. It seems like there's a bug in SMBIOS
type 19 & 20 entries that we were using (size_mb - 1) * 1024. I changed
this to (size_mb * 1024) - 1, which seems to make a lot more sense in
the dmidecode output. If that's wrong, please let me know. Thanks,
Alex
