guests may exceed their designated memory limit When a guest is permitted
to have close to 16TiB of memory, it may be able to issue hypercalls to
increase its memory allocation beyond the administrator established limit.

overflow. It would then only be the overflowed (and hence small) number
which gets compared against the established upper bound.
