The original version of the test did indeed use 10MB. However, the mremap code must 'unshare' and shared pmd mappings before remapping. Since sharing requires mappings of at least 1GB, the size was changed to make sure unsharing worked. In the end, I believe I suggested adding hugepage-mremap to run_vmtests.sh. The script does not try to configure a GB worth of huge pages. And, I think it is somewhat unreasonable to suggest users gave a spare GB to run the test. I'm OK with restoring the original value.
