I interpreted this as:

When CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 is disabled, dma_alloc_coherent() fails when size
is < PAGE_SIZE. qcom_scm_pas_init_image() will fail to allocate using
dma_alloc_coherent() and incorrectly fall back to buddy pool.

This justification seems incorrect to me. None of the other
dma_alloc_coherent() users are page-aligning their requests in scm
driver. Is something else going on?

Isn't PAGE_ALIGN(size) good enough? Why do you need to round up to the
2nd page? Maybe you thought PAGE_ALIGN was PAGE_ALIGN_DOWN ?
