Another option is to divide up the malloced bitfield into 4k chunks, only zero
chunks in which a bit has been set. Maintain a bitfield for which chunks are
currently in use (that would be max 16k). Align the bitfield to a page boundary
when (re)allocing if it grows larger than a page for extra points.

The kernel should then nicely take care of paging for you, I think. The actual
operations should also be able to stay very light.
