Like Mike said, some comment about the test would be better, commit
messages are never one liners in the kernel.

Isn't this fd leak bugfix independent of the rest of the changes? The
only side effects should have been that it could run out of fds, but I
assume this was found by source review as I doubt it could run out of fds.
This could be splitted off in a separate patch.

Overall it looks a good test also exercising UFFD_EVENT_FORK at the
same time.

Thanks,
