The GuC can't access addresses above GUC_GGTT_TOP, so any GuC-accessible objects can't be mapped above that offset. Instead of checking each object to see if GuC may access it or not before mapping it, we just limit the GGTT size to GUC_GGTT_TOP. This wastes a bit of address space (about ~18 MBs, which is in addition to what already removed at the bottom of the GGTT), but it is a good tradeoff to keep the code simple. The in-code comment has also been updated to explain the limitation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
