There are two things we need to take care of when we create block mappings in the stage 2 page tables: (1) The alignment within a PMD between the host address range and the guest IPA range must be the same, since otherwise we end up mapping pages with the wrong offset. (2) The head and tail of a memory slot may not cover a full block size, and we have to take care to not map those with block descriptors, since we could expose memory to the guest that the host did not intend to expose. So far, we have been taking care of (1), but not (2), and our commentary describing (1) was somewhat confusing. This commit attempts to factor out the checks of both into a common function, and if we don't pass the check, we won't attempt any PMD mappings for neither hugetlbfs nor THP. Note that we used to only check the alignment for THP, not for hugetlbfs, but as far as I can tell the check needs to be applied to both scenarios.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
