Tried it on the 2G V210. It changes the picture. With 2G RAM, it
just hangs.
With mem=256M it produces a crash in strlen and of_alias_scan like in
V100 with 1G.
mem=512M results in the same strlen error.
mem=1G results in a stranger error:
[ 0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: ERROR: Failed to allocate 0x90 bytes below 0x0.

The working machines have 512M RAM, 834M RAM and 2G RAM so it's not just
the amount of RAM.
