Except that I construct attacks to use massive amounts of AVL tree
space. Very easily in fact. On something like an appliance with
8Mb of RAM that makes the AVL setup a non solution and something
better is needed

It stands to argue that the same can be done for vm_area_structs's, so
why don't we punt those from the mm subsystem?
