The test_dax_remap() test is a regression check for mishandling of mremap()
in the presence of pmd_devmap(). My understanding is that it was a fuzzing
condition not something an application would want to do in practice.

On recent kernels with commit 73d5e0629919 ("mremap: check if it's possible
to split original vma"), the test fails for device-dax. That seems an
equally acceptable result of attempting this remap, so update the test
rather than ask the kernel to preserve the old behaviour.
