When mapping a larger chunk than physical memory is available with
PROT_WRITE and overcommit is disabled, the mapping will fail.
This will prevent the test from running on systems with less then ~1GiB
of memory and triggering an inscrutinable test failure.
As the mappings are never written to anyways, the flag can be removed.
