On aarch64 hosts with 64K pages, the platform bus MMIO allocator can
place device regions (such as the 1KB "tpm-ppi" region) at offsets
that are not aligned to the host page size. This causes unnecessary
and noisy VFIO IOMMU warnings when starting VMs configured with
passed-through PCI devices:
vfio_listener_valid_section received unaligned region tpm-ppi
iova=0xc005000 offset_within_region=0x0
qemu_real_host_page_size=0x10000
Fix this by ensuring the alignment used by the platform bus allocator
is at least qemu_real_host_page_size().
