[PATCH] hw/core/machine: diagnose wrapping of maxmem

["Daniel P. Berrangé" <berrange@redhat.com>]

The 'maxmem' parameter parsed on the command line is held in uint64_t
and then assigned to the MachineState field that is 'ram_addr_t'. This
assignment will wrap on 32-bit hosts, silently changing the user's
config request if it were over-sized.

Improve the existing diagnositics for validating 'size', and add the
same diagnostics for 'maxmem'
