We still need to cap the number of sockets somehow, as it would be bad for
sockets to consume all memory.  If you want to move the socket limit to
someplace where it can be modified via a sysctl, that'd be great.  As
you're going through and UMAing everything, I think it'd be best if you
kept the limits the same for now.

Once everything's UMA'd, then we can develop new sizing parameters.
