You have a lot of madvise patches, so why not create SAFE_MADVISE?

Or there are the TST_EXP_* macros.

AFAICT this could match more than one line by matching the end of the
preceding range.

I think that in general it's better to avoid strstr if memcmp can be
easily used instead.

Same here although Rss: seems to be unique. Then again it could be added
to another field in new kernel.

Perhaps sscanf would be better?

Otherwise looks good.
