FWIW, all these flags are getting a bit confusing.  Maybe do something
like the patch below.

FYI, this is a change in behavior - previously this condition would
have been taken even if CPULongMode or RamSizeOver4G is false.  I'm
not sure if this change is intentional.  (My example patch below
follows your lead here.)

Possible alternate variable naming:

On closer inspection, I think this change in behavior was not
intended.  How about variable names like the below instead.
