b665eed25f selftests/mm: hugetlb_madv_vs_map: avoid test skipping by querying hugepage size at runtime
Currently, the size used in mmap() is statically defined, leading to
skipping of the test on a hugepage size other than 2 MB, since munmap()
won't free the hugepage for a size greater than 2 MB.  Hence, query the
size at runtime.

Also, there is no reason why a hugepage allocation should fail, since we
are using a simple mmap() using MAP_HUGETLB; hence, instead of skipping
the test, make it fail.

8c407e05a9 selftests/mm: new test that steals pages
This test stresses the race between of madvise(DONTNEED), a page fault
and a parallel huge page mmap, which should fail due to lack of
available page available for mapping.

This test case must run on a system with one and only one huge page
available.

	# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages

During setup, the test allocates the only available page, and starts
three threads:

  - thread 1:
      * madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) on the allocated huge page
  - thread 2:
      * Write to the allocated huge page
  - thread 3:
      * Tries to allocated (steal) an extra huge page (which is not
        available)

thread 3 should never succeed in the allocation, since the only huge
page was never unmapped, and should be reserved.

Touching the old page after thread3 allocation will raise a SIGBUS.
