You could just request more space then you need and randomly offset
the allocations you do from within that space. That has the same

well, that's quite different. randomizing mmap offsets gives a real random
distribution over the whole userland address space. allocating more and then
offsetting within this allocation still gives a deterministic order of
allocated memory locations, just the padding between those varies.
