Yeah, it takes about 5-10s on my laptop. We could switch it to just
everything within a 4K block, but the main reason for testing with
2*PAGE_SIZE is to make sure that check_nonzero_user() works across page
boundaries. Though we could only do check_nonzero_user() in the region
of the page boundary (maybe i E (PAGE_SIZE-512,PAGE_SIZE+512]?)
Yeah, I like this idea: just poke at the specific edge-case.
