Did you take a look at the PCI specification?
Page Aligned Request is in the ATS capability Register.
ATS Capability Register (Offset 0x04h)
bit (5):
Page Aligned Request - If Set, indicates the Untranslated address is always
aligned to 4096 byte boundary. Setting this field is recommended. This
field permits software to distinguish between implemntations compatible
with this specification and those compatible with an earlier version of
this specification in which a Requester was permitted to supply anything in
bits [11:2].

I don't think you can change the definition from ATS to PRI. Both are
orthogonal feature.

This is a requirement for the Intel IOMMU's.
You say virtio, so is it all emulated device or you talking about some
hardware that implemented virtio-pci compliant hw? If you are sure the
device actually does comply with the requirement, but just not enumerating
the capability, you can maybe work a quirk to overcome that?
Now PRI also has an alignment requirement, and Intel IOMMU's requires that
as well. If your device supports SRIOV as well, PASID and PRI are
enumerated just on the PF and not the VF. You might want to pay attension
to that. We are still working on a solution for that problem.
I don't think this is the right fix for your problem.
