Subject: [PATCH] selftests/mm: Skip test for non-LPA2 and non-LVA systems

Post my improvement of the test:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240522070435.773918-3-dev.jain@arm.com/
The test begins to fail on 4k and 16k pages, on non-LPA2 systems. To
reduce noise in the CI systems, let us skip the test when higher address
space is not implemented.

The patch applies on linux-next.
