This makes sense, thanks. I just wanted to make sure no kernel bugs were
going unhandeld.

This seems very complicated for fairly limited gain to be honest.
If we really want to keep the current testcase we could also ensure that
the pointer does not fall into the first page, as the first page is not
mapped under Linux:
0 <= addr < PAGE_SIZE
Or instead of PAGE_SIZE just hardcode 4096, as that should be the
minimum size and and does not require a lookup.
