Right, I guess that's where my earlier ask breaks, as you want an
alignment that is *larger* than the allocation.

Huh. You are implicitly relying on the VA allocator handing you an
address contiguous with the previous mapping. That's... brave. I'd
rather you allocate the VA space upfront with the correct alignment
and then map the single page where it should be in the VA region.

That'd be a lot less fragile.

Thanks,
