Yep; that's no worse that anything else a guest can do. I'm pretty sure
no guest installs unaligned PAE entries and then tries to use them. (The
only case I _know_ of where the OS relies on h/w to enforce invalid-bit
detection is Xen itself).

Yes, it looks correct to me. Give me a Signed-off-by and I'll apply it.
Thanks,
