607 [KNL, x86_64] range could be above 4G. Allow kernel
608 to allocate physical memory region from top, so could
609 be above 4G if system have more than 4G ram installed.

615 is passed, kernel could allocate physical memory region
616 above 4G, that cause second kernel crash on system
617 that require some amount of low memory, e.g. swiotlb
