Hi,

I changed patch to move MUNMAP() instead and added comment
explaining why.

You can review it here:

Thanks,

With commit 212a4b9 on some distros(e.g. RHEL6.9/7.5), running
madvise02 got the following error:
------------------------------------------------------
...
madvise02.c:181: CONF: MADV_UNMERGEABLE is not supported
madvise02.c:196: FAIL: madvise succeeded unexpectedly
madvise02.c:196: FAIL: madvise succeeded unexpectedly
madvise02.c:181: CONF: MADV_WILLNEED is not supported
...
-------------------------------------------------------

If MAP_SIZE was equal to a pagesize, shared_anon may get the same
address which was a part of file2 and already unmapped, so that the
whole address of file2 became valid again.  Subsequently, ENOMEM
errno tests succeeded, so changing the order of mmaps to make
shared_anon get different address.
