The current i386 initrd is limited under 1 GiB memory and it works with
most compressed initrds (also initrd_addr_max case reported by kernel).
addr = (addr_max - aligned_size) & ~0xFFF;
Above line is used to calculate the reasonable address to store the initrd.
However, if initrd size is greater than 1 GiB or initrd_addr_max, then it
will get overflow, especially on x86_64 arch.
Therefore, add a check point to prevent it overflows as well as having
a debug log for complex story of initrd addresses.
