This is gloriously unencumbered by unwieldy comments!

Please explain the goal of this function. Why is it doing what it is
doing? This should also explain why it is page-aligning and caching things.

Which also reminds me, it really isn't calculating the size of the quote
"buf". It's calculating the size of the allocation required to transport
it around, no?

Because, there are three sizes here:

 1. The actual data of the quote
 2. The size of #1 with the metadata added in
 3. The size of #2 with page padding

Which one of those three is "buf_size", eh?
