OK,aligned to the GPU page size is reasonable. Since the buffer is very high likely be used by GPU.

Yeah, theuser_size denote the length of command buffer, it's usually just need to 
aligned to 8 bytes. And generally, the size command buffer won't larger 
than 4KiB (a GPU PAGE).

I'm imagine that just 'size' with some extra comment, as it's possible
that a buffer is only get used by CPU for specific purpose.
