hi,

what does this do if a new, large map entry can be merged with an existing
small map entry that has an amap allocated?  if the large one is 1 GB
and the small one is one page, does this allocate amap space for the whole
1 GB?  that seems undesirable.  (I haven't looked at the code so maybe
we avoid this somewhere else, but I thought I'd ask.)
