Hi Pavel,

Thanks again for fixing this up! Looks good, with a tiny point about the
subject line:

1) To follow convention, the subject line should say what you're doing,
not what the previous condition was. Also, there are several tests in that
directory, so we should say which one. So more like this:

"selftests/vm: gup_test: fix test flag"

That is just a minor documentation point, so either way, feel free to add:
