> JDK-8309675 tried to solve the issue of NMT reporting to much committed memory by faking the virtual addresses registered when committing physical memory. This mapping was simply the `virtual address  = physical offset in backing file + heap base`. This works when ZGC gets a contiguous heap which starts at the heap base. However fails if it does not start at the heap base or is discontiguous.
