Patch series "selftests/mm: fix failures and robustness improvements".
Powerpc systems with a 64K base page size exposed several issues while
running mm selftests. Some tests assume specific hugetlb configurations,
use incorrect interfaces, or fail instead of skipping when the required
kernel features are not available.
This series fixes these issues and improves test robustness.
This patch (of 13):
During cleanup, the value of /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages is currently being
set to 0. At the end of the test, if all tests pass, the original
nr_hugepages value is restored. However, if any test fails, it remains
set to 0.
With this patch, we ensure that the original nr_hugepages value is
restored during cleanup, regardless of whether the test passes or fails.
