On APUs, the GTT pool is backed by system RAM, but its size is not bound
to the non-carveout memory that actually backs it. A user can end up
with GTT + VRAM exceeding total physical memory through the following
sequence:

 - Have a large non-carveout memory space (~128GB) and accordingly set a
   large GTT (~100GB) via the ttm module parameter.
 - Lower the non-carveout memory space in BIOS by increasing the UMA
   Frame Buffer Size (VRAM) to 64GB.
 - The previously set GTT value (~100GB) persists, even though the new
   non-carveout space (64GB) can no longer back it.

This leads to a case where kernel reports GTT (100GB) + VRAM (64GB)
despite the sum being greater than total physical memory (128GB).

Cap the GTT size to totalram_pages() on APUs. totalram_pages() already
excludes the VRAM carveout, so the resulting GTT can never exceed the
system RAM that actually backs it.
