Hi!
The MADV_DONTNEED has been implemented for hugepages since:

commit 90e7e7f5ef3f712da992d505aee2d921797c3f96
Author: Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz@oracle.com>
Date:   Thu Mar 24 18:13:18 2022 -0700

    mm: enable MADV_DONTNEED for hugetlb mappings

So for newer kernels this actually works fine. I guess that we should
change the test to expect the call to pass for v5.18 and newer.
