The reason this works, I think, is that, in those cases the truncated 
value is exactly zero,

 From the specifciation of MapViewOfFile:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/memoryapi/nf-memoryapi-mapviewoffile

```
If this parameter is 0 (zero), the mapping extends from the specified 
offset to the end of the file mapping.
```

So, I think that can be used as a valid workaround, at least in case you 
want to create a memory region that has the full size of the memory mapping.
