The spec only requires the posted interrupt descriptor address to be 64-bytes aligned (i.e. bits[0:5] == 0). Using page_address_valid also forces the address to be page aligned. Only validate that the address does not cross the maximum physical address without enforcing a page alignment. v1 -> v2: - Add a missing parenthesis (dropped while merging!)
