As this function can never return partial pages, it will always be zero upon
first use.
To be picky, the "As" phrase of this is not quite true. IARV64 does not, but
could return a partial page, such as a partial 2G page for a smaller request
when the conditions were right (but the implementa

The "doc" actually does say so. But it's not surprising you didn't notice it,
