#     powerpc/xmon: Lower limits on nidump and ndump
#     
#     In xmon we have two variables that are used by the dump commands.
#     There's ndump which is the number of bytes to dump using 'd', and
#     nidump which is the number of instructions to dump using 'di'.
#     
#     ndump starts as 64 and nidump starts as 16, but both can be set by the
#     user.
#     
#     It's fairly common to be pasting addresses into xmon when trying to
#     debug something, and if you inadvertently double paste an address like
#     so:
#     
#       0:mon> di c000000002101f6c c000000002101f6c
#     
#     The second value is interpreted as the number of instructions to dump.
#     
#     Luckily it doesn't dump 13 quintrillion instructions, the value is
#     limited to MAX_DUMP (128K). But as each instruction is dumped on a
#     single line, that's still a lot of output. If you're on a slow console
#     that can take multiple minutes to print. If you were "just popping in
#     and out of xmon quickly before the RCU/hardlockup detector fires" you
#     are now having a bad day.
#     
#     Things are not as bad with 'd' because we print 16 bytes per line, so
#     it's fewer lines. But it's still quite a lot.
#     
#     So shrink the maximum for 'd' to 64K (one page), which is 4096 lines.
#     For 'di' add a new limit which is the above / 4 - because instructions
#     are 4 bytes, meaning again we can dump one page.
