The inline #ifdef is not great style, we shouldn't be spreading it around.

Given the alloc happened in the of code, it seems bad form to be
bringing the free and re-alloc here. Perhaps we should be doing the
limiting and checking in the reserved mem code?

If there is no other solution, at the least this deserves a pr_warn
so users know why a reason specified may not be getting requested.
