Just to add, I took a quick eyeball and I think there a couple of potential issues:

  - In create_pagecache_thp_and_fd() you do *fd = open(testfile, O_CREAT ...);
    where testfile is /mnt/thp_fs/testfile. So if /mnt/thp_fs doesn't exist,
    then the open will fail I think? I'm pretty sure that's what's happening on
    our CI. Suggest the test needs to setup this dir itself. Is thp_fs a mounted
    fs or just a dir? If the latter can you just mktemp()?

  - Later in create_pagecache_thp_and_fd() you fail the test if you don't have a
    filesystem that supports large folios. Can we turn that into a skip? That
    would reduce noise on the CI.

Thanks,
Ryan
