See also the virtio standard for a discussion of this hypercall.
+Subcode 4 - storage-limit
+ Handled by userspace.
+
+ After completion of the DIAGNOSE call, general register 2 will
+ contain the storage limit: the maximum physical address that might be
+ used for storage throughout the lifetime of the VM.
+
+ The storage limit does not indicate currently usable storage, it may
+ include holes, standby storage and areas reserved for other means, such
+ as memory hotplug or virtio-mem devices. Other interfaces for detecting
+ actually usable storage, such as SCLP, must be used in conjunction with
+ this subfunction.
+
+ Note that the storage limit can be larger, but never smaller than the
+ maximum storage address indicated by SCLP via the "maximum storage
+ increment" and the "increment size".
