As for the fact that Maxmem is in bytes and physmem isn't: we define Maxmem to be equal to physmem (machdep.c:598). So they are in fact equal.

i386 does something equivalent.
Your patch changes the granularity for Maxmem from pages to bytes. On all architectures it should be pages. On i386 you see atop(), which is the opposite of ia64_ptob().
