[PATCH] selftests/vm: Don't mlockall MCL_CURRENT in on-fault-limit test

From: Yannick Brosseau
Date: Mon Jun 20 2016 - 18:22:31 EST


The default MEMLOCK limit is not big enough to accomodate all the
current pages of the test program process, so the test fails
at this step.
By removing the MCL_CURRENT flag, we allow the mlockall
call to succeed. The mmap is twice the size of the current limit,
so it will still fail as expected.
