Probably not much. 2147483662 = 0x8000000E = EFIERR(14) = EFI_NOT_FOUND.
This is the result of an EFI AllocPages call.

However, 34339740 bytes might be difficult to allocate on a system 
that, according to https://wiki.sipeed.com/hardware/en/lichee/Zero/Zero.html,
has only 64MB of DRAM.

I'm not sure why that much memory is required. Does your LCD panel support
use some huge static variables, e.g. as a framebuffer ? Do you try to
load a kernel with debug symbols ?
