For backend functions like this, I don't see much value in checking the
arguments like this. It seems highly unlikely that any caller will provide
a total_elems setting of 0. Maybe an assertion would be more appropriate,
but IMHO we can still do without it.

Again, it seems highly unlikely that any caller will provide a total_elems
value even close to 4.6 quintillion.
