Subject: selftests/mm: fix thuge-gen test bugs
Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2023 09:25:18 +0100

thuge-gen was previously only munmapping part of the mmapped buffer, which
caused us to run out of 1G huge pages for a later part of the test.  Fix
this by munmapping the whole buffer.  Based on the code, it looks like a
typo rather than an intention to keep some of the buffer mapped.

thuge-gen was also calling mmap with SHM_HUGETLB flag (bit 11 set), which
is actually MAP_DENYWRITE in mmap context.  The man page says this flag is
ignored in modern kernels.  I'm pretty sure from the context that the
author intended to pass the MAP_HUGETLB flag so I've fixed that up too.
