Hi Walter,

Thanks for working on this.

If size<0, does it make sense to continue at all? We will still check
1PB of shadow memory? What happens when we pass such huge range to
memory_is_nonzero?
Perhaps it's better to produce an error and bail out immediately if size<0?
Also, what's the failure mode of the tests? Didn't they badly corrupt
memory? We tried to keep tests such that they produce the KASAN
reports, but don't badly corrupt memory b/c/ we need to run all of
them.
