Could verify_file() report the final result directly instead of returning
test status to run()? It already emits TFAIL for a mismatched byte, so the
current failure path reports a second TFAIL at the call site.

Could this create and unmap a memsize-sized range instead?
tst_get_bad_addr() maps one PROT_NONE page and returns that still-mapped
page. Thus old_address itself is mapped, and EFAULT depends on old_size
extending beyond it, contrary to the description and commit message.

Could both IPC library assignments be removed? The rewritten test removes
all SysV IPC usage, does not include tst_newipc.h or call GETIPCKEY(), and no
other test in this directory uses either IPC library.

The commit message also says that the new test uses SysV shared memory and
GETIPCKEY(). Could it describe the actual anonymous mmap rewrite instead?

Could the body explain why this rewrite removes the two successful
MREMAP_FIXED cases from mremap05 and splits them into a separate test? The
current text only restates the subject and leaves the coverage change
unexplained.

Could check_pattern() report the final TPASS or TFAIL itself, or could the
content check remain in run()? It currently emits TFAIL and propagates a
status back to run() to decide whether to emit TPASS.

Verdict - Needs revision
