We should have a common limit rather than a configurable option; there's no point building a compatibility nightmare for ourselves when the only thing we lose is a few entries in the fixmap. I'm happy to bump the max size for the DTB, but I'd like to see a reasonable example of a DTB approaching or exceeding that first. Mark.
