   This could be security problem couldn't it?  Any user application could 
cause a kernel simply by consuming memory regions.
   
   Linux, apparently, restricts the number of regions to 65535.  But this can 
be changed by writing to a proc file sysem entry:  See 
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/safer-payments/6.5?topic=settings-increasing-virtual-memory-map-size
   
   That is a better solution than a configuration setting, but functionally 
very similar.  This option should only be available to privileged applications.
