Typical use of per cpu memory for a small system of 8G 8p 4node is less than
64k per cpu memory. This is increasing rapidly for larger systems where we can
get up to 512k or 1M of memory used for cpu storage.
The maximum size allowed of the cpu area is 128MB of memory.
The cpu area is placed in region 5 with the kernel, vmemmap and vmalloc areas.
