Subject: [PATCH 0/1] selftest/mm/hugetlb: SIGBUS on stolen page

This test case triggers a race between madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) and
mmap() in a single huge page, which got stolen (while reserved).

Once the only page is stolen, the memory previously mmaped (and
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) got a SIGBUS when accessed.

I am not adding this test to the un_vmtests.sh scripts, since this test
fails at upstream.

  selftests/mm: add a new test for madv and hugetlb mmap
