This adds a new test case to the ksm functional tests to make sure that
the KSM setting is inherited by the child process when doing a

It's not a test itself, so it shouldn't be run when running all tests.
See below.

Can we use the define from a header? (PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE)
I was wondering if we could simply exec() ourself (same binary), but
pass a special cmdline argument. Then you don't have to build a separate
binary.
Just special-case in main() on that argument and perform this check.

Add a return; so you can simplify the code below (no need for the "else")

It's probably the cleanest to disable PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE again when
returning form this function, so the other tests have a clean slate.
