i goes from 0 to len in steps of 16, but you use it to dereference an
array of type struct kho_mem. So you end up only looking at only one of
every 16 mems and do an out of bounds access. I found this when testing
the memfd patches and any time the file was more than 1 page, it started
to crash randomly.
Below patch should fix that:
