do_brk() minimizes calls into target_mmap() by aligning the address
with host page size, which is potentially larger than the target page
size. However, the current implementation of this optimization has two
bugs:

- The start of brk is rounded up with the host page size while brk
  advertises an address aligned with the target page size as the
  beginning of brk. This makes the beginning of brk unmapped.
- Content clearing after mapping is flawed. The size to clear is
  specified as HOST_PAGE_ALIGN(brk_page) - brk_page, but brk_page is
  aligned with the host page size so it is always zero.

This optimization actually has no practical benefit. It makes difference
when brk() is called multiple times with values in a range of the host
page size. However, sophisticated memory allocators try to avoid to
make such frequent brk() calls. For example, glibc 2.37 calls brk() to
shrink the heap only when there is a room more than 128 KiB. It is
rare to have a page size larger than 128 KiB if it happens.

Let's remove the optimization to fix the bugs and make the code simpler.
