[PATCH v1] selftests/mm: static process_madvise() wrapper for guard-pages

[PATCH v1] selftests/mm: static process_madvise() wrapper for guard-pages

[Ryan Roberts]

The recently introduced guard-pages mm selftest uses the
process_madvise() syscall, a wrapper for which was added to glibc v2.36.
For those of us stuck with older distributions this causes a compile
error when compiling the mm selftests. For example Ubuntu 22.04 uses
glibc 2.35, which does not have the wrapper.

To workaround the issue, let's introduce our own static
process_madvise() wrapper that uses glibc's syscall() helper.

While we are at it, add the guard-page test suite to run_vmtests.sh so
that it can be automatically run by CI systems.

Applies on top of mm-unstable (f349e79bfbf3)

Thanks,
Ryan

Ah oops! I didn't check glibc and had erroneously assumed this would be
trivially available, but perhaps using a rolling release distro has warped
my perceptions on this rather...

At any rate you're entire correct, this is very much needed, cheers!

Oops part 2... I was sure I had added it there... thanks!
