[LTP] [PATCH] open08: calling tst_get_bad_addr from LTP API

Maybe we misled by the code comments before, after thinking over, I
guess the "outside your accessible address space" != "outside of
process mapped space". So we don't need to do map/unmap to satisfy
that.

And, the comments should be more precise if change as:

--- a/testcases/kernel/syscalls/open/open08.c
