Sure. We keep the PMD_SIZE alignment for the same reason we have it for x86. With 4K page size and 2M hugepage size
things get properly aligned and we can make this feature useful even with this alignment restrictions. With 64K
page size and 2M hugepage size, having this alignment restrictions makes it more or less not useful to a large
number of memory blocksize we support. I will add that comment in here.

I kept that change with ppc64 enablement because only ppc64 arch got check against
those values in the free path.
