  * It is difficult to define and perhaps will never meet the original meaning
  * of this define that was meant to.
  * Fortunately, there is no reference for this in noMMU mode, for now.
+ *
+ * HACK: copy_from_user must even handle copying from flash. So don't impose a
+ * limit at all. Not sure this is correct ...
