This is a pc & q35 only machine opt. One use is to allow for more
ram in a 32bit guest for example:
-machine pc,max-ram-below-4g=3.75G
If you add enough PCI devices then all mmio for them will not fit
below 4G which may not be the layout the user wanted. This allows
you to increase the below 4G address space that PCI devices can use
(aka decrease ram below 4G) and therefore in more cases not have any
mmio that is above 4G.
For example using "-machine pc,max-ram-below-4g=2G" on the command
line will limit the amount of ram that is below 4G to 2G.

less than
But the test is greater then. So "not greater then" is "less then or equal".
Or did you want the test changed?

So why do we need gigabyte_align anymore?
Because of qemu 2.0 and the user is not required to specify this option.
Can't we set property to 0xc0000000 by default, and
override for old machine types?
There is a strange compatibility part here. Since this code includes ram_size
(see:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-02/msg05146.html
) and xen has a different default.
Also, a value that isn't a multiple of 1G will lead to bad
performance for large machines which do have above_4g_mem_size.
Let's detect and print a warning.
Will Do.
