* svcQueryIoMapping no longer accepts unaligned addresses as input when (input physaddr >= 0x1000). In addition, when input physaddr is < 0x1000, the kernel takes a new codepath to convert this to a different physical address. | * svcQueryIoMapping no longer accepts unaligned addresses as input when (input physaddr >= 0x1000).
