The size of vmalloc area depends from various factors on boot and could be set to: 1. Default size as determined by VMALLOC_DEFAULT_SIZE macro; 2. One half of the virtual address space not occupied by modules and fixed mappings; 3. The size provided by user with vmalloc= kernel command line parameter; In cases [1] and [2] the vmalloc area base address is aligned on Region3 table type boundary, while in case [3] in might get aligned on page boundary. Limit the waste of page tables and always align vmalloc area size and base address on segment boundary.
