Ah, I was thinking wrong.  The segment limit field is only 20 bits, so for
segments larger than that you set the SZ_G bit and the granularity of the
limit is 4kb (fill_descriptor in oskit/x86/seg.h does this).  So try making
ldt.c use VM_MAX_ADDRESS-VM_MIN_ADDRESS-PAGE_SIZE, because the fencepost
error is at 4k granularity.
