When we compile all the shared libraries in the system with
-Wl,-z,max-page-size=65536 and use 4k page size kernel, for every PT_LOAD
segment (except the last) loaded in memory, there will be a vm_area_struct with
---p permissions.

In mobile devices we have seen an increased of 120K vm_area_structs due
-Wl,-z,max-page-size=65536. There used to be 40K vm_area_structs. This is an
increase of ~18MB (120K * 152).
