Sure, but... there's also this:

static inline void __kunmap_local(const void *addr)
{
#ifdef ARCH_HAS_FLUSH_ON_KUNMAP
        kunmap_flush_on_unmap(addr);
#endif
}

Are you sure that the guts of that thing will be happy with address that is not
page-aligned?  I've looked there at some point, got scared of parisc (IIRC)
MMU details and decided not to rely upon that...
