A little strange (since file creation and deletion are not in the same place).
I know $mnt/huge_mremap is created in hugepage-mremap. But I think
hugepage-mremap should do the housekeeping instead of deleting the file
here. Or we can create the file before doing the test. Like:

 + touch $mnt/huge_mremap
 -./hugepage-mremap 256
 +./hugepage-mremap $mnt/huge_mremap
 +rm -f $mnt/huge_mremap

Otherwise LGTM.
