I had compiled and tested this on 64bit, and unsigned long was big enough for
0x100000000. Obviously, it is too big for 32 bit platforms. This patch
fixes that by changing the LOW32LIMIT constant to 0xffffffff.

Please apply

Thanks,
Kiran

Patch cleans up the alloc_bootmem fix for swiotlb. Patch removes
alloc_bootmem_*_limit api and fixes alloc_boot_*low api to do the right
thing -- allocate from low32 memory.
