Hmm. Can you check if making it be
#define PHYSMEM_END ((phys_addr_t)-1)
fixes things for you?
That said, it would probably be even better if we got rid of these
games entirely, and m68k just defined MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS instead. Maybe
as a config option, since I assume it's going to be either 24 or 32
depending on CPU (or are there other choices? I used to know the old
m68k, but...)
