Yeah, write_hugetlb_memory.sh is needed by charge_reserved_hugetlb.sh. I'll
put a comment there.

Ideally we should be able to fix these tests before enabling them and there
shouldn't be any side-effect of these. I'm struggling with the
configurations where I'm getting consistent results. Studying and analyzing
how and how many hugetlbs are being allocated/deallocated isn't straight
forward enough in these.

I'll spend more time to either put it under some flag or modify the tests
to don't entangle with each other.
