This test case triggers a race between madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) and
mmap() in a single huge page, which got stolen (while reserved).

Once the only page is stolen, the memory previously mmaped (and
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) got a SIGBUS when accessed.

I am not adding this test to the un_vmtests.sh scripts, since this test
fails at upstream.
