This describes what the test does but that can be easily seen from the
code. Rather it should explain why we are doing this. E.g. somethign as:

* Test that anonymous pages that haven't been faulted yet are reported as
  not resident by mincore()

Here as well.

We unmap the mapping in the main loop so we should do this only if we
exitted the test_mincore() prematurely. Maybe we should do:

	if (ptr)
		SAFE_MUNMAP(ptr, size);

And set the ptr to NULL in the test_mincore() right after we have
unmapped it.

I guess that we can do this once in the test setup.

Just do if (tc->mlock)

Trailing whitespace.

You can use the checkpatch.pl from Linux kernel git repostory to check
for minor mistakes like these before sending a patch.

Can we please print different messages for PASS/FAIL here? This message
as it is is a bit confusing.

> +	if (tc->mlock == true)

Here as well just if (tc->mlock)
