  1. vmspike's post in sunxi64: Decrease amount of (video?) reserved memory was marked as the answer   
    The same case was already discussed here, but with no result:
     
    Finally found that adding `swiotlb=1` to kernel args releases 64 MB of memory:
    /boot/armbianEnv.txt:extraargs=... nokaslr cma=0 swiotlb=0 but not disables it completely:
    [ 0.000000] software IO TLB: SWIOTLB bounce buffer size roundup to 1MB
    Now:
    MemTotal: 487684 kB  
    Alternative option `iommu=off` does not work.
     
    So it's not for graphics.
    This option looks reasonable for less than 4 GB RAM devices(?)
    If someone knows potential drawbacks, please disclose.
