Isn't MAP_HUGE_2MB ignored for !hugetlb pages?

I guess you want something like posix_memalign or start faulting in from
an aligned address to guarantee you will fault 2MB pages. Also note that
the default behavior for THP during the fault has changed recently (see
444eb2a449ef ("mm: thp: set THP defrag by default to madvise and add a
stall-free defrag option") so you might need MADV_HUGEPAGE.
Besides that I am really suspicious that this will be measurable at all.
I would just go and spin a patch assuming you are still able to trigger
OOM with the vanilla kernel. The bug fix is more important...
