[PATCH 2/8] Allocate the hash table under 1G on cell

In order to support the fixed IOMMU mapping (in a subsequent patch), we
need the hash table to be inside the IOMMUs DMA window. This is usually 2G,
but let's make sure the hash table is under 1G as that will satisfy the
IOMMU requirements and also means the hash table will be on node 0.
