It have been more than 10 years since introducing this this check, but
I believe there must be a reason at the time.

Also currently we have some unmaintained platform and it's impossible
to test on them for us.

For Cavium's issue, I believe removing the page rounding can help.
I'd suggest keep this method but remove the rounding part, also
leave a warning or kernel taint when out of boundary kernel image
is detected.

Thanks.
