This is getting bikeshed-y -- but does it really matter where this
stuff is located? I mean.. it's not like one is actually testing the
syscall in this application; he/she is testing a corner case of the
syscall to ensure that it doesn't blow out in a way that creates the
issue that prompted the mainline kernel.org fix.
I really didn't care that much when I committed it as either
location is not ideal. Given the number of CVE reproducers in the tree
now, there should be a separate section like regression, or security
to go over these regression tests in more detail, or at least in a way
that's easy to comprehend and deal with.
