userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: add userfaultfd_hugetlb test
Test userfaultfd hugetlb functionality by using the existing testing
method (in userfaultfd.c). Instead of an anonymous memeory, a hugetlbfs
file is mmap'ed private. In this way fallocate hole punch can be used
to release pages. This is because madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) is not
supported for huge pages.
Use the same file, but create wrappers for allocating ranges and
releasing pages. Compile userfaultfd.c with HUGETLB_TEST defined to
produce an executable to test userfaultfd hugetlb functionality.
