I realize that this test will fail if there is any other process in the system that has KSM
enabled with a suitable page filled with zeroes ... maybe instead of checking the global
KSM zeropages, check the per-mm ones instead? That should be better.

+ /* Mmap zero pages */
Maybe better:
/* Let KSM deduplicate zero pages. */
+ map = mmap_and_merge_range(0x00, size, false);
+ if (map == MAP_FAILED)
+ return;
+
+ /* Check if ksm_zero_pages can be update correctly after merging */

You could do something like the following on top (I recall you had some kind of COW
tests previously, this should be a simplified version of it):

You could also test manual discard (MADV_DONTNEED) and munmap(). Just a thought about which
tests to add eventually later.
