With the logic pud error i found and that seems currently will stay
for the forseeable future in the tree I don't think x86-64 64bit hotadds for more
than 1GB have ever worked with the sparsemem method.

Older trees (before 2.6.24) had also a different method that did
preallocate everything based on the SRAT. That one should have worked 
for this case.
