[PATCH v2 1/3] selftests/mm: compaction_test: Fix bogus test success on Aarch64

From: Dev Jain
Date: Tue May 21 2024 - 03:44:39 EST


Currently, if at runtime we are not able to allocate a huge page, the
test will trivially pass on Aarch64 due to no exception being raised on
division by zero while computing compaction_index. Fix that by checking
for nr_hugepages == 0. Anyways, in general, avoid a division by zero by
exiting the program beforehand. While at it, fix a typo, and handle the
case where the number of hugepages may overflow an integer.

Changes in v2:
- Combine with this series, handle unsigned long number of hugepages

v1:
- https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240513082842.4117782-1-dev.jain@xxxxxxx/

Fixes: bd67d5c15cc1 ("Test compaction of mlocked memory")
