<brushes off an old email>
The reason 2GB is also problematic is that we still have other things
that need to live under 4GB region: ACPI, APIC, and BAR of the PCI
platform device (16MB), VGA emulated device (32MB).

mmio_total counts all of those up, and the emulated devices are
enumerated before the passthrough devices - so I can do:

 if ( is_64bar && bar_sz > (GB(2) - mmio_total - HVM_BELOW_4G_MMIO_LENGTH) )

or such?

Let me prep a patch to this effect and also another prereq that adds
MB(x) and GB(x) macros.
