Ard to confirm but I think the reason is the relative offset between
code and data regions that must be preserved. For example, on Juno I
get:

[    0.000000] efi:   0x0009fffaf000-0x0009ffffefff [Runtime Data       |RUN|  |  |  |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC]*

Since the code may assume relative loads from the data section, we need
to preserve this offset (which doesn't seem 64KB aligned).

Yeah, figures. Could you mention this in the changelog or in a code
comment?
