Ok, I can fix size, but what about start and stop ? If I change that, it
means I also have to fix all caller. Do you expect me to do that ?
And it is very unlykely, but what if for some reason someone wants to
invalidate the entire user address space which is 3Gbytes size ? A
signed size would be negative here.
