Seems we need to track the GPU and CPU allocation sizes separately.
Userspace is correct in assuming that the GPU page size is 4K and
buffers are aligned to this granule. There should be no need to waste
GPU VA space just because the CPU page size is larger than that and we
need to overallocate buffers to suit the CPU.

As this might happen for a lot of buffers in a single submit and
userspace might be unimpressed by the submit failure and keep pushing
new submits, this has a potential to spam the logs. Please use
dev_err_ratelimited. Other than that, this patch looks good.
