I thought 64K was mostly theoretical. Eg, we cannot actually boot a 64k kernel, while 16k works just fine with a few minor fixes.

This creates an ABI that userspace will use in jemalloc. If we add a 64k kernel later then we would have to bump this and wouldn't be able to run old binaries.

What is the cost of having this be 64K vs 16K (if we never implemented a 64K kernel)?
