    I feel like this function is becoming too magic and it'll be more
    complicated for tests that need to add additional memory regions
    to know what physical addresses are available. Maybe we should assert
    if we can't allocate more than 3G at offset zero and also provide
    another interface for allocating at an offset input by the user,
    as long as the offset is 4G or above (asserting when it isn't)?

    Thanks,
    drew
