[LTP] [PATCH] Fix memcontrol02 test failure on powerpc.

[Andrea Cervesato]

Hi Pavithra,

> memcontrol02 test is failing on PowerPC with 50MB allocation. Increase to
> 100MB for both anonymous and page cache tests, and bump minimum
> device size from 300MB to 400MB accordingly.

can you please explain better what's the real issue? We need
a technical explaination of why this test is failing in PPC.

Also this function name is quite wrong. We are exposing internal
function implementation in the name itself. This needs to be
fixed with a name that is not exposing the quantity of MB we are
actually allocating, since it may change in the future.
