Memory management is the responsibility of the operating system kernel, and Android uses Linux as its kernel. As such, the maximum amount of memory depends on whatever Linux supports in combination with your platform's own support.

32-bit non-PAE kernel = 4GiB

32-bit PAE kernel = lesser of 64GiB and motherboard maximum

64-bit kernel = lesser of a metric crapload and motherboard maximum
