Ross Zwisler bba1b1b2b9 generic: add regression test for stale mmap reads
This adds a regression test for the following kernel patch:

  dax: fix data corruption due to stale mmap reads

The above patch fixes an issue where users of DAX can suffer data
corruption from stale mmap reads via the following sequence:

- open an mmap over a 2MiB hole

- read from a 2MiB hole, faulting in a 2MiB zero page

- write to the hole with write(3p).  The write succeeds but we incorrectly
  leave the 2MiB zero page mapping intact.

- via the mmap, read the data that was just written.  Since the zero page
  mapping is still intact we read back zeroes instead of the new data.
