Review comment:
This is the enforcement of the user-specified GPU memory limit. If users
say "MXNet can use 1GB", then it needs to someone let users know that it cant
function properly anymore within the set memory limit.
Its not any different than running on a GPU with small amount of GPU memory
than needed (artificial limit).
