Maybe its just me hating all the rtalloc larger than block size
allocation granularity mess and hoping it goes away.  With this we'll
make it certain that it is not going away, but that might just have
been a faint hope.  But if we add more of it we'll at least need to
ensure it is done using common helpers and clean the existing mess up
as much as we can.
