While fixing this issue, I noticed that if the size in the device tree 
is not aligned on PAGE_SIZE, the size is then automatically realigned on 
PAGE_SIZE: see early_init_dt_add_memory_arch where size is and-ed with 
PAGE_MASK to remove the unaligned part.

So the issue does not need to be fixed :)

Thanks anyway,

Alex
