This option increases the number of hash misses by limiting the number

HPTEs installed, and removing that from the hash table on the next hash
insertion. A timer round-robins CPUs removing remaining kernel HPTEs and
clearing the TLB (in the case of bare metal) to increase and slightly
randomise kernel fault activity.
