So the structure of this function is going to cause significant
performance issues. Because we are freeing the memory 4K at a time we
are kicking the pages out of using THP and as a result each page fault
will occur on a 4K boundary instead of a THP boundary.
As a result I am seeing the first pass of memhog take around 35s, but
the second pass takes 57s or so because we are no longer faulting in
THP pages and instead having to fault in 4K pages.
We should be trying to madvise the lesser of either PAGE_SIZE <<
guest_obj[i[.order or the size of the memory region minus our offset.
