There is memory map, so it's not debian bug #419994.

Hmm, there is 640KB memory, then PC legacy hole up to 1MB. Next to it
3GB usable memory region, then nothing? Did you put whole displaymem
output in email? If so, there is something wrong -- missing memory above
4GB address. (I think that bios reserve 1GB space at ~3GB address for
PCI devices.)

Yes, there is no memory detected (according to presented memory map)
above chipset/PCI hole.
Please send memory map from linux kernel that correctly detects all
memory.
You can use:
$ dmesg | grep e820
or locate it in kernel boot logs.
