Public bug reported:
Booting the latest eoan daily on a Pi4 with >1Gb of RAM, only the first
1Gb of RAM appears accessible:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ free
total used free shared buff/cache
available
Mem: 931920 185484 504748 3664 241688
723820
Swap: 0 0 0
However, adjusting the config.txt so that the kernel is booted directly
without u-boot in between results in the full 4Gb being accessible:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ free
total used free shared buff/cache
available
Mem: 3884464 189852 3457504 3656 237108
3636004
Swap: 0 0 0
