From: Venkata Sandeep Dhanalakota <venkata.s.dhanalakota at intel.com>
when allocating pages to lmem object of size 4G or greater
we allocate memory blocks from buddy system. In this scenario
buddy sytem can allocate blocks that can have size >= 4G and
these blocks require >32b to represent block size with these
blocks we run into an issue with sg list construction because
sg->length field is only 32b wide.
Hence limit the max allowed block size to less than 4G.
