That macro only makes the size we store in the ramblock data
structure be a multiple of the page size -- it does nothing to ensure
that the actual memory that was passed in by the caller is the
right size. (It will have the right effect where qemu_ram_alloc_from_ptr
is allocating the memory itself, obviously.)
