Let me try to explain it once again.

As far as I can tell the CVE kernel patch you pointed out has NO effect
on the testcase and there is NO need to modify the test at all. The test
works fine both before and after the kernel patch.

If the test fails for you YOUR kernel is broken.

That is unless you prove that the test is actually wrong, which you
haven't and I do not think that you actually can.
