This isn't the common solution in the kernel (the variable declaration
would just be lifted out of the loop), but as it's selftest code, which
does lots of special things ... I *guess* this is okay.

I love having this deadlock test added to the selftests.

I think I need to make an improvement to the test harness, though, as
the failure mode right now just blows up after the 30 second timeout
and leaves this deadlocked:

$ ./vmaccess
[==========] Running 2 tests from 1 test cases.
[ RUN      ] global.vmaccess
Alarm clock
$ ps
  PID TTY          TIME CMD
 2605 pts/0    00:00:00 bash
23360 pts/0    00:00:00 vmaccess
23361 pts/0    00:00:00 vmaccess
23363 pts/0    00:00:00 ps

But that's mostly unrelated to this code.
