(was asking myself the same question) I *think* it's intended. It's
mainly only used to allocate one additional guard page. The callers of
qemu_ram_mmap() make sure that the size is properly aligned (e.g., to
huge pages).

Of course, a 4k guard page is sufficient - unless we can't use that
(special case for ppc64 here).
