selftest/mm: register existing mapping with userfaultfd in hugetlb-mremap
Previously, register_region_with_uffd() created a new anonymous mapping and overwrote the address supplied by the caller before registering the range with userfaultfd. As a result, userfaultfd was applied to an unrelated anonymous mapping instead of the hugetlb region used by the test. Remove the extra mmap() and register the caller-provided address range directly using UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_MISSING, so that faults are generated for the hugetlb mapping used by the test. This ensures userfaultfd operates on the actual hugetlb test region and validates the expected fault handling.
