This test tests that MADV_COLLAPSE acting on file/shmem memory for which
(1) the file extent mapping by the memory is already a huge page in the
page cache, and (2) the pmd mapping this memory in the target process
is none.
In practice, (1)+(2) is the state left over after khugepaged has
successfully collapsed file/shmem memory for a target VMA, but the
memory has not yet been refaulted. So, this test in-effect tests
MADV_COLLAPSE racing with khugepaged to collapse the memory first.
