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.

Before patch:
 running ./hugetlb-mremap
 -------------------------
 TAP version 13
 1..1
  Map haddr: Returned address is 0x7eaa40000000
  Map daddr: Returned address is 0x7daa40000000
  Map vaddr: Returned address is 0x7faa40000000
  Address returned by mmap() = 0x7fff9d000000
  Mremap: Returned address is 0x7faa40000000
  First hex is 0
  First hex is 3020100
 ok 1 Read same data
 Totals: pass:1 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0
 [PASS]
 ok 1 hugetlb-mremap

After patch:
 running ./hugetb-mremap

  Registered memory at address 0x7eaa40000000 with userfaultfd
  Mremap: Returned address is 0x7faa40000000

 Totals: pass:1 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0
 [PASS]
 ok 1 hugetlb-mremap
