That's an implementation limitation, not an abi one. It is really
important that we do not enshrine kernel internals as expectations,
especially not as a basic test - the expectation is that we will support
massive objects. Having a reality check test to see how far we can get
is useful.
For example, lazy population of pages is an abi feature (I think so, at
least all userspace takes that into account, but I don't know if anyone
is really depending on it -- certainly due to the limitations we have in
place lazy is good, and userspace does try to take advantage of that,
and compensates for it at others, but whether anyone would break because
of a change to population semantics, not sure), so we could reasonably
allocate all pot of sizes and check the kernel doesn't reject them, until
the overflow check at -4095.

Bah, I keep creating objects at too low a level where that rounding
doesn't occur automatically :)
