Is PAGE_SIZE is enough?
It's what x86 currently uses so it'll be no worse off if it gets moved
to the generic code (there's a comment in the arch code explaing what's
needed there) and it's enough for arm64, we only do single record
pushes/pops or (optionally) writes to unconstrained addresses.
It's enough for RISC-V too.
