For the page alignment checks, I think this is the point of using
PAGE_SIZE, we want the doorbell placed at the page boundary, PAGE_SIZE
depends on the arch,
so I think we don't want to use hard code here. We will pass the
notify_pa to upper layer anyway, just print an warning if not PAGE_SIZE
aligned.

However I think this may refer to vdpa_notification_area.size, YES, I
think use PAGE_SIZE directly is wrong here, this size depends on the
device(bar layout) than the arch, so I will add more code to tell which
device is probed by the driver, then assign correct value.
