Commit 4dfd4bba8578 ("selftests/mm/uffd: refactor non-composite global
vars into struct") moved some of the operations previously implemented
in uffd_setup_environment() earlier in the main test loop.

The calculation of nr_pages, which involves a division by page_size, now
occurs before checking that default_huge_page_size() returns a non-zero
This leads to a division-by-zero error on systems with !CONFIG_HUGETLB.

Fix this by relocating the non-zero page_size check before the nr_pages
calculation, as it was originally implemented.

Do we CC stable on unit tests? From my recollection, no.
