Subject: selftests: vm: Try harder to allocate huge pages
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ee00479d6702393bf5eda94775349a2e28ba78fa;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

selftests: vm: Try harder to allocate huge pages

If we need to increase the number of huge pages, drop caches first
to reduce fragmentation and then check that we actually allocated
as many as we wanted.  Retry once if that doesn't work.
