merge instructions: clean merge
What is the issue: Brief description of the problem
Recent upgrade to bionic has caused an OOM test to start failing because the OS now does not result in an error from malloc when allocating 1 TB and the test relies on that. The test was changed to allocate 1 PB of memory.
This changes makes the test allocate 1 PB of memory and that triggers a failure in malloc.
Why cherrypick: The stable release bots are showing test result failures and fixing this will enable us to look for real failures as opposed to this synthetic test failure.
Risk: Very low, it is just a change to the test
Link to original issue(s): #46167
