Ok, this version of the test program below works for me and I verified
my fix as well (after fixing some local variable name clashes in my
move_pte() macro, notably "__pfn" which is also used by pfn_to_page()
which resulted in fun oopses :-)
The biggest pain is that the MREMAP_FIXED stuff is not available in
anything other than current glibc's, and the only way to get at the
extra mremap() argument is to do everything usually obtained from
sys/mman.h by hand :( I tried to get all the platform cases right, but
please double check before you try this test program.
Thanks!

*
* It tries to exercise the case where mremap() with MREMAP_MAYMOVE
* will actually place the area somewhere else and not just extend
* or shrink at the existing mapping location.
*
* This can cause problems on virtually indexed cache platforms
* if they do not implement move_pte() with logic to handle a
* change of virtual color. If the cache virtual color changes
* when mremap() moves the mapping around, we can end up accessing
* stale aliases in the cache on subsequent cpu accesses to the
* new virtual addresses.
*
* This bug was first discovered as file corruption occuring occaisionally
* in 'dpkg'. When 'dpkg' is building a 'status' or 'available' file it
* uses an expanding allocator called 'varbuf' which uses realloc()
* heavilly to expand it's internal buffer. In glibc, for very large
* malloc() buffer sizes, realloc() uses mremap() with MREMAP_MAYMOVE to
* try and satisfy expansion requests. Most of the time there is room
* in the address space, but if we bump up against anoter mmap() region
* it can move things around. If this results in different D-cache coloring
* for the region we can end up reading corrupt data from existing aliases
* in the D-cache.
*
* It was very hard to reproduce, so this test case was written.
