Does this fix address the failure in

Thanks.
I have tried to reproduce this failure on a couple of different systems before and after the application of this commit but I haven't had any success in doing so. I suspect that there was some sort of hugepage configuration issue on the test system but I'd have to look into it more to be sure.
However, I noticed that on the mm-everything branch, the hugepage-mmap test fails:
# ./run_vmtests.sh -t "hugetlb"
running: ./hugepage-mmap
-----------------------
running ./hugepage-mmap
-----------------------
Open failed: No such file or directory
[FAIL]
running: ./hugepage-mmap
-----------------------
running ./hugepage-mmap
-----------------------
Open failed: No such file or directory
[FAIL]
...
It appears this is due to commit 0796c7b8be84 ("selftests/vm: drop mnt point for hugetlb in run_vmtests.sh")
as the test still replies on the ./huge mountpoint removed in that commit. The test passes before that patchset is applied.
Additionally, I just noticed an extraneous 'echo "running: $1"' line in run_test(), the effects of which are seen above, and I have just sent a patch to remove it.
