Comment (by joel.sherrill):

 I was just asking if the limit needs to be increased since it was set 15
 years ago. There are no users needing this. When designed 16MB was more
 RAM than I had seen on an RTEMS system. Now we see much more than that on
 USD35 boards.

 You are right that we don't want to overflow a 32-bit integer. That may
 mean the practical limit is 1024 (2GB filesystem) or 2048.

 But do we want to do this at all?
