the kernel to another location like 0x9z etc.
And we want IOC aperture to cover entire area used by the kernel,
so let's make its base matching link base

How about something below....

Currently IOC aperture base is hardcoded to 0x8000_0000 which may not be true for non default values of CONFIG_LINUX_LINK_BASE, so use the config value

and add required asserts:
checking IOC aperture base address and size to be supported by IOC.

.... And while at it, also add the required asserts expected by the IOC programming model.

Is there a reason they are different types ?
Also the way you use it below, best to call it mem_size !

Not really averse to this per-se, but conventionally we've not used KiB or GiB etc, so I'd prefer KB, GB... just for consistency and ability to grep correctly.
