Let's extend mmap_and_merge_range() to test if anything in the current
process was merged. range_maps_duplicates() is too unreliable for that
use case, so instead look at KSM stats.

Trigger a complete unmerge first, to cleanup the stable tree and
stabilize accounting of merged pages.

Note that we're using /proc/self/ksm_merging_pages instead of
/proc/self/ksm_stat, because that one is available in more existing
kernels.

If /proc/self/ksm_merging_pages can't be opened, we can't perform any
checks and simply skip them.

We have to special-case the shared zeropage for now. But the only user
-- test_unmerge_zero_pages() -- performs its own merge checks.

One nitpick:

Better do the fds check all in main(), e.g. not all callers below considers
negative values, so -1 can pass "if (get_my_merging_pages())" etc.

Hi Peter,

thanks for the review!

The two existing callers should be handling it correctly:

if (get_my_merging_pages() > 0)
	-> fail

if (val && !get_my_merging_pages()
	-> fail

Both will pass on negative values, unless I am missing something.

I tried to keep the test working also on older kernels where 
ksm_merging_pages does not exist yet (it's ~1 year old).


Anyhow, if you think it's better to make the test fail on these setups, 
I can change it.
