Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] selftests/mm: Add a new test for madv and hugetlb

Create a selftest that exercises the race between page faults and
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) in the same huge page. Do it by running two
threads that touches the huge page and madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) at the same
time.

In case of a SIGBUS coming at pagefault, the test should fail, since we
hit the bug.

The test doesn't have a signal handler, and if it fails, it fails like
the following

  ----------------------------------
  running ./hugetlb_fault_after_madv
  ----------------------------------
  ./run_vmtests.sh: line 186: 595563 Bus error    (core dumped) "$@"
  [FAIL]

This selftest goes together with the fix of the bug[1] itself.
