Furthermore, the flagships all seem to have 4 GB of RAM now. It's not
clear to me if ARMv7 userland processes on AArch64 Android kernel get
2 GB or 3 GB of virtual address space, so it's not exactly clear to me
to what extent we are currently failing to use the RAM on the latest
phones, but in any case, the physical RAM is already in the territory
where the pointer size starts to matter.

(The context of my question was, however, understanding how soon we
might have higher than tier-3 configs that have NEON available
unconditionally.)
