commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=345c29a4b7321952b916c1b4eb88a03e136919be
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

By default, Qemu emulates a system with 128 MB of RAM. This is not
sufficient for some test cases we have, such as TestPerlDBDmysql,
where the initramfs is quite large. Therefore, this commit extends the
RAM size emulated by Qemu to 256 MB.

Fixes:

Thanks to Arnout for the analysis of the issue.
