Linux is right, all installed RAM and tested successfully by the BIOS at boot is 12GB

I see this line near the top:

Feb 15 05:25:52 server kernel: [    0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x04000000fbffffff] usable

which means the BIOS claims there is 268435456 GiB of RAM starting at
the 4 GiB mark.  It appears that Linux ignores this as impossible.
