Oh, nice, I didn't know about that! From a quick look, there are actually
two memory tunables, %_smp_tasksize_proc and %_smp_tasksize_thread.

Looks like the new thing would replace the constrain_build macro that
firefox.spec is using:

Instead of current:

# Require 4 GB of RAM per CPU core
%constrain_build -m 4096

It would use:

# Require 4 GB of RAM per CPU core
%global _smp_tasksize_proc 4096

It doesn't look like a huge win from the packager's point of view, but I am
sure it's better to use the rpm upstream limits instead of external macros
such as constrain_build. <https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue>
