Rename selftets/vm to selftests/mm for being more consistent with the
code, documentation, and tools directories, and won't be confused with
virtual machines.
[sj@kernel.org: convert missing vm->mm changes]

Fix a typo of "comaring" which should be "comparing".

The test currently fails on 32bit. Fixing the "-1ull" vs. "-1ul" seems
to make the test pass and the compiler happy.
Note: This test is not in mm-stable yet. This fix should be squashed into
"selftests/vm: add KSM unmerge tests".

Patch series "mm/ksm: break_ksm() cleanups and fixes", v2.
This series cleans up and fixes break_ksm(). In summary, we no longer use
fake write faults to break COW but instead FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE. Further,
we move away from using follow_page() --- that we can hopefully remove
completely at one point --- and use new walk_page_range_vma() instead.
Fortunately, we can get rid of VM_FAULT_WRITE and FOLL_MIGRATION in common
code now.
Extend the existing ksm tests by an unmerge benchmark, and a some new
unmerge tests.
Also, add a selftest to measure MADV_UNMERGEABLE performance. In my setup
(AMD Ryzen 9 3900X), running the KSM selftest to test unmerge performance
on 2 GiB (taskset 0x8 ./ksm_tests -D -s 2048), this results in a
performance degradation of ~6% -- 7% (old: ~5250 MiB/s, new: ~4900 MiB/s).
I don't think we particularly care for now, but it's good to be aware of
the implication.
This patch (of 9):
Let's add three unmerge tests (MADV_UNMERGEABLE unmerging all pages in the
range).
test_unmerge(): basic unmerge tests
test_unmerge_discarded(): have some pte_none() entries in the range
test_unmerge_uffd_wp(): protect the merged pages using uffd-wp
ksm_tests.c currently contains a mixture of benchmarks and tests, whereby
each test is carried out by executing the ksm_tests binary with specific
parameters. Let's add new ksm_functional_tests.c that performs multiple,
smaller functional tests all at once.
