I'm wondering if we could just set 'ulimit -l unlimited' in check? so
all tests inherits the unlimited mlock setting. For root, this doesn't
change anything, but command runs by regular user could get unlimited
lockable memory. And new tests won't have to worry about running
fsstress/fsx as $qa_user.
