Vineet Agarwal 9f7ff45e99 selftests/mm: khugepaged: initialize file contents via mmap

file_setup_area() currently allocates anonymous memory, fills it, and
writes it into the backing file used for collapse testing.

Instead of copying data through write(), resize the file with ftruncate(),
map it directly with MAP_SHARED, and initialize the mapped area in place.

This simplifies the setup path and avoids the need for explicit partial
write handling.
