You can certainly hotplug to the next RAM address so it doesn't
require infinite space.
But you need to reserve that space to prevent mallocs from going there.
How much space do you reserve?
You wouldn't send a packet from/to a PCI IO region so I don't think
that practically speaking that's a problem.
If we implement interguest shared memory as a pci device, then it
becomes a problem.
