Summary:
This was originally added in as a hack to work around CUDA's limitation
on allocation. The `libc` implementation now isn't even used for CUDA so
this code is never hit. Even if this case, this code never truly worked.
A true solution would be to use CUDA's virtual memory API instead to
allocate 2MiB slabs independenctly from the normal memory management
done in the stream.
