Remove duplicate open() for local pagemap_fd in mprotect_tests() that
shadows the global pagemap_fd already opened in main(). The local fd
is never used in the function.

Hmm yeah it's not even closed either...

I'm assuming this was an error in the origianl tests, Muhammad - I'm
guessing some artifact of a previous approach or similar?

Anyway, LGTM, so:
