Note that tmpfile() should by default fetch from /tmp which is very
possibly a tmpfs afaict.  It's tricky in this special test case since I
don't think tmpfs can trigger this bug (shmem doesn't define page_mkwrite).

I wanted to create under this dir to make the best possible bet to trigger
the bug. E.g. major fs will works like xfs, btrfs, extN.  It'll stop work
if someone clones the Linux repo under tmpfs but it's rare.

Yeh :) I'll fix it.
