Currently, linux kernel can not use last 4k bytes of addressable space because IS_ERR_VALUE macro treats those as an error. This will be an issue for RV32 as any memblock allocator potentially allocate chunk of memory from the end of DRAM (2GB) leading bad address error even though the address was technically valid. Fix this issue by limiting the memblock if available memory spans the entire address space.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
