There is not much use in limiting the tmpfs size to something lower
than the default unless unprivileged users have write access to the
directory (like in /tmp).

Tmpfs does not actually claim memory or use swap unless it is actually
needed, so limiting the space to something like 128mb is not an
advantage.
