> See the bug report for details. On some kernels, the madvise hint is not reflected in `/proc/smaps`.
> Rough kernel bisection shows that the hints are reliable since kernel 4.15.
> There are plenty of changes between 4.14.17 and 4.15, none seem obvious as the culprits.
> 
> Additional testing:
>  - [x] Test with kernel 5.4.0 (still passes)
>  - [x] Test with kernel 4.9.0 (used to fail, now passes)
>  - [x] Test with kernel 4.15 (still passes)
>  - [x] Test with kernel 4.14.17 (used to fail, now passes)
