[PATCH] softmmu/physmem: Improve guest memory allocation failure error message |

When Linux refuses to overcommit a seriously wild allocation we get:
$ qemu-system-i386 -m 40000000
qemu-system-i386: cannot set up guest memory 'pc.ram': Cannot allocate memory
Slighly improve the error message, displaying the memory size
requested (in case the user didn't expect unspecified memory size
unit is in MiB):
$ qemu-system-i386 -m 40000000
qemu-system-i386: Cannot set up 38.1 TiB of guest memory 'pc.ram': Cannot
allocate memory
