The first one - On devices without the MIG bug, the device memory
passed to the VM need not be 512M aligned. The devices may still have
non 512M aligned memory.

I think that can be done. We calculate nvdev->usemem.bar_size down
the function, but I suppose that can be moved up before returning
early.
