RFR: 8315923: pretouch_memory by atomic-add-0 fragments huge pages unexpectedly [v22]

[Liming Liu]

> As described at [JDK-8315923](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8315923), this patch uses madvise with MADV_POPULATE_WRITE to pretouch memory when supported (since kernel 5.14).
> 
> Ran the newly added jtreg test on 64c Neoverse-N1 machines with kernel 4.18, 5.13 and 6.1, and observed that transparent huge pages formed right after pretouch on kernel 6.1. Recorded the time spent on the test in *seconds* with `VERBOSE=time` as the table below, and got that the patch takes improvements when the system call is supported, while does not hurt if not supported:
> 
> <table>
>   <tr>
>     <th>Kernel</th>
>     <th colspan="2"><tt>-XX:-TransparentHugePages</tt></th>
>     <th colspan="2"><tt>-XX:+TransparentHugePages</tt></th>
>   </tr>
>   <tr><td></td><td>Unpatched</td><td>Patched</td><td>Unpatched</td><td>Patched</td></tr>
>   <tr><td>4.18</td><td>11.30</td><td>11.30</td><td>0.25</td><td>0.25</td></tr>
>   <tr><td>5.13</td><td>0.22</td><td>0.22</td><td>3.42</td><td>3.42</td></tr>
>   <tr><td>6.1</td><td>0.27</td><td>0.33</td><td>3.54</td><td>0.33</td></tr>
> </table>
