There is room for improvement, so let's clean up a bit:
(1) Define "4" as a constant.
(2) SKIP if we fail to allocate all THPs (e.g., fragmented) and add
recovery code for all other failure cases: no need to exit the test.
(3) Rename "len" to thp_area_size, and "one_page" to "thp_area".
(4) Allocate a new area "page_area" into which we will mremap the
pages; add "page_area_size". Now we can easily merge the two
mremap instances into a single one.
(5) Iterate THPs instead of bytes when checking for missed THPs after
mremap.
(6) Rename "pte_mapped2" to "tmp", used to verify mremap(MAP_FIXED)
result.
(7) Split the corruption test from the failed-split test, so we can just
iterate bytes vs. thps naturally.
(8) Extend comments and clarify why we are using mremap in the first
place.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
