In Debian kernel we've very recently enabled building an ARM64 kernel flavour with 16KiB page size and we've discussed adding a 64KiB flavour at some point as is the case for PowerPC64 already. This will likely reveal bugs that need fixing in some of the 70,000+ packages in the Debian archive. That ARM64 16KiB page size is interesting in respect of the Apple M1 where Asahi [0] identified that the DART IOMMU has a minimum page size of 16KiB so using that page size as a minimum for everything is going to be more efficient.
