> Althought granularity of chunks in a mempool is a cacheline, addresses are
> extended to align to page boundary for performance reason in device when
> registering a MR (Memory Region). This could make some regions overlap,
> then can cause Tx completion error due to incorrect LKEY search. If the error
> occurs, the Tx queue will get stuck. To avoid it, end address of a packet
> segment is used in LKEY search.
