This adds a regression test for the following kernel patches:
mm: avoid spurious 'bad pmd' warning messages
dax: Fix race between colliding PMD & PTE entries
The above patches fix two related PMD vs PTE races in the DAX code. These
can both be easily triggered by having two threads reading and writing
simultaneously to the same private mapping, with the key being that private
mapping reads can be handled with PMDs but private mapping writes are
always handled with PTEs so that we can COW.
Without this 2-patch kernel series, the newly added test will result in the
following errors:
