Currently, `fill_sg_entry()` splits the scatterlist using `UINT_MAX`.
This creates a non-page-aligned DMA length (`0xFFFFFFFF`) for the
first entry, resulting in non-page-aligned DMA addresses for all
subsequent entries.

While the underlying IOMMU mapping may be contiguous, hardware
DMA engines often require explicit address alignment (e.g., page,
cacheline, or storage sector boundaries). Passing unaligned
addresses and lengths can cause explicit failures in DMA descriptor
creation or silent data corruption if lower unaligned bits are
truncated.

Fix this by splitting the scatterlist by the largest possible page
aligned chunk within `UINT_MAX` (`ALIGN_DOWN(UINT_MAX, PAGE_SIZE)`).
This ensures all scatterlist DMA addresses and lengths remain page
aligned and satisfy hardware constraints.

Page-aligned entries allow the system to cleanly chunk payloads into
PCIe MaxPayloadSize (MPS) (e.g., 128 bytes, 256 bytes, 512 bytes).
As a result, this may help reduce TLP fragmentation in P2P transfers
and alleviate potential congestion within a logical PCIe switch
partition, especially when Relaxed Ordering is not possible due to
hardware constraints.
