[root@localhost ltp]# git grep mem01
testcases/kernel/syscalls/ioctl/ioctl_sg01.c: * a read-accessible 
SCSI-compatible device (e.g. SATA disk). Running mem01
[root@localhost ltp]#

ioctl_sg01.c has such description " Running mem01
  * test program before this one may increase the chance of successfully
  * reproducing the bug."

I guess we should also remove this or use oom testcases can also 
increase this rate(I don't try ).
