kmemcheck_hide_pages() function which has about a dozen lines. But it
assumes that kernel memory is mapped with 4KB page granularity which on
ARM it is not. That's the prerequisite part I was talking about.

I can't find any ARM port for this. And this is not exactly trivial to
make this work on ARM either (even though this would be an interesting
challenge).
