From: Shuang Qiu <shuang.qiu@oracle.com>
In upstream patch 1a61ab (mm: memcontrol: replace zone summing with lruvec_page_state()),
it modify the lruvec state in batch,equal and less than 32 MADV_FREE pages will not trigger
the account of lruvec_stat,and will not be free in memory pressure either.
So the testcase may fail with:
...
madvise09.c:219: INFO: Memory hungry child 6178 started, try 10
madvise09.c:254: INFO: Memory map: pppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
madvise09.c:259: FAIL: No MADV_FREE page was freed on low memory
...
Change the PAGES to the value more than 32 can fix such issue.
