I guess crash_load_segments(..) as you're prefixing the other exported
functions with "crash_".

Returns unconditional 0 - make function void then.

Since you get zeroed memory, you can save yourself all assignments to 0
below and thus slim this already terse function.

You're getting zeroed memory already but you're zeroing it out again

You can do the size assignment and check first so that you don't have to
do the rest if it is a less than a page.

This retval is not checked at the callsite in
