Please describe the intended refactoring here.

Perhaps use enums for this sort of thing?

Coding style would usually be

	const char *check_type_str;

sizeof(test_name).

Looking at this I can't help but think that the more common pattern for
test programs where we have an array of test parameters that we loop
through might make sense:

	for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(test_cases); i++) {
		format_test_name(test_cases[i]);

		switch (test_cases[i].test_type) {
		case CHECK_ANON_MEM:
			check_anonymous_memory_mapping(USE_MMAP, ...);

That seems a bit more legible and maintainable.

The management of this could be added as a parameter in the test struct.
