Why do we need the prior mlockall()? If that is really required, the
comment should be clearer why the munlockall() is insufficient.

Also, why can't we fail only the test?

Why can't we fail only the test?

same.

Not required when exiting either way?

Similar comments as for the other path regarding ksft_exit_fail_msg() etc.
