Looks good to me (since board doesn't fix up ram_size and uses
whatever user specified, proper support for 4Gb could be done on top later).

Could it break a build on 32-bit mingw host?
(machine->ram_size is 32-bit on that host and condition would be
always false, tripping -Werror)
that's why I've worked around it using local uint64_t in the last version
"[PATCH v3 43/86] hppa: allow max ram size upto 4Gb"
coincidentally that would get rid of global ram_size usage
and leave only machine->ram_size on this board.
