The test will fail as below on x86_64 with cpu la57 support (will skip if no la57 support). Note, the test requries nr_hugepages to be set first.

Before commit cc92882ee218 ("mm: drop hugetlb_get_unmapped_area{_*} functions"), for x86_64 hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() is handled in arch code arch/x86/mm/hugetlbpage.c and addr is checked with map_address_hint_valid() after align with 'addr &= huge_page_mask(h)' which is a round down way, and it will fail the check because the addr is within the DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW but (addr + len) is above the DFEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW. So it wil go through the hugetlb_get_unmmaped_area_top_down() to find an area within the DFEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW. After commit cc92882ee218 ("mm: drop hugetlb_get_unmapped_area{_*} functions"). The addr hint for hugetlb_get_unmmaped_area() will be rounded up and aligned to hugepage size with ALIGN() for all arches. And after the align, the addr will be above the default MAP_DEFAULT_WINDOW, and the map_addresshint_valid() check will pass because both aligned addr (addr0) and (addr + len) are above the DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW, and the aligned hint address (0x800000000000) is returned as an suitable gap is found there, in arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown(). To still cover the case that addr is within the DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW, and addr + len is above the DFEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW, make the addr hint one hugepage lower, so that after the align it's still within DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW, and the addr + len (2 hugepages) will be above DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW.
