What happens if *start is very near the end of a 4GB boundary? In that
case *end - *start might not be as big as 16MB and we could end up
failing the allocation IIUC.

I'd be interested to know if it works. I know that kbase incorrectly
uses PAGE_SIZE in several places (in particular assuming it is the size
of the page tables). And I was aware I was in danger of slipping into
the same mindset here.

User space shouldn't care too much - other than the size of buffers
allocated being rounded up to the CPU's page size. At least the Panfrost
user/kernel ABI has sizes in bytes not pages (unlike kbase).
