I would just fix the LTP test. Coincidently I have discussed the very

update the LTP and use a larger madvised memory area. I haven't checked
whether this is upstream in LTP already. But please talk to LTP people.
My QA colleague sync with me weeks ago, they have a workaround for this
case in LTP which is signed-off-by both suse and oracle QA. So it's not
a problem for LTP now. If we don't care this from kernel side, it's fine
to drop it.

If there is no other reason to change the kernel code but the failing
LTP test that doesn't really represent any real life scenario then I
would simply keep the code as is. Andrew, could you drop it from the
mmotm tree please?
