Christian told me the buffer should be aligned to *CPU* page boundary,
or the page table in AMDGPU driver will be corrupted:

IMO f4d3da72a76a9ce5f57bba64788931686a9dc333 "drm/amdgpu: Set a suitable
dev_info.gart_page_size" should be backported along with this, which
makes the kernel to provide the CPU page size to libdrm and mesa and
correct userspace behavior.  I'm not sure why only one is backported.
