Can you be consistent here? END is what the user of this particular #define needs. But in any case SIZE gets added later on. Ian.

Due to the layout of the guest physical address space we cannot support more than 768M of RAM before overrunning the area set aside for the grant table. Due to the presence of the magic pages at the end of the RAM region guests are actually limited to 767M. Catch this case during domain build and fail gracefully instead of obscurely later on.
