There might be glibc malloc debugging trigger of some kind to do that, but I wouldn't think that would change just for the kernel version, so I'm out of ideas.
I recall that ElectricFence did something like that. But why even bother mapping anything. I would think that accessing an unmapped region would result in a SIGSEGV just as well.
