It shouldnt do so. The amount of vmalloc memory is partly dependant on the
amount of RAM because you need address space for the mappings, but that
is in the other of many megabytes of space.

rvmalloc uses vmalloc_32 which keeps the memory below 4Gb - that is needed
on the Bttv at least because >4Gb isnt a valid DMA target for the USB
controller
