Right. Too late as I sent this upstream :(

It's only used by vhost test. It works by chance because
it's only using 512m ram.
I tweaked vhost user test
to use more memory (3900 instead of 512 M) and it started failing
because it needs 3 fds then.
Not yet upstreaming the test change itself, looking
for ways to avoid using huge pages for this.
