Below fix by Dariusz has introduced an issue where all unaligned addresses were left as unaligned. This patch is a partial revert of commit 7fa7216ed48d ("mem: fix alignment of requested virtual areas") and implements a proper fix for this issue, by asking for alignment in all but the following two cases: 1) page size is equal to system page size, or 2) we got an aligned requested address, and will not accept a different one This ensures that alignment is performed in all cases, except for those we can guarantee that the address will not need alignment.
