Probably, but I'd need your help here.
There goal is to verify that offsets of __kptr's in the 'info' array
had been set correctly. Where is this information is used later on?
E.g. I'd like to trigger some action that "touches" __kptr at index N
and verify that all others had not been "touched".
But this "touch" action has to use offset stored in the 'info'.
