Sorry, but I can't see how this could ever happen (except for a very serious
bug at the compiler or at the hardware).

See, the definition at PAGE_ALIGN is (from mm.h):

	#define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) ALIGN(addr, PAGE_SIZE)

and the macro it uses come from kernel.h:

	#define __ALIGN_KERNEL(x, a)		__ALIGN_KERNEL_MASK(x, (typeof(x))(a) - 1)
	#define __ALIGN_KERNEL_MASK(x, mask)	(((x) + (mask)) & ~(mask))
	..
	#define ALIGN(x, a)		__ALIGN_KERNEL((x), (a))

So, this:
	size = PAGE_ALIGN(length);

(assuming PAGE_SIZE= 0x1000)

becomes:

	size = (length + 0x0fff) & ~0xfff;

so, size will *always* be >= length.

Thanks,
Mauro
