Fixes: #349

min_free_kbytes test has badly formed if conditions in mem_tune()
for child exit status check. This is causing test to declare as FAILED
despite that not being the case. Fix child exit status check conditions.

Can you please elaborate what's wrong about it?

Why? Shouldn't mmap succeed with overcommit == 1?

@Vipin, is there any possible you can have a look Jan's question?

I‘m not sure if Vipin could help to explain this. I just nocited that this
pull request was pending there more than half year, so I re-send this patch
to ML for more discussion.
https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/pull/350

I was unable to reproduce this. But AFAIK, 'overcommit == 1' cann't
guarantee the MAP_FAILED(with ENOMEM) before oom. So I roughly made change
in the original patch to catch up both oom and map_failed scenario for any
'overcommit'.

Beside that, as I was pointed out in patch 3/3, this test has an obviously
defect in design, I'm also not sure if MemFree + (1/10 *min_free_kbytes) is
safty enough, but that's only what I can do for the case remedy.

With 'overcommit == 1' test always expects OOM. Test output below
suggests that child ended normally, because mmap failed.
