Yeah, but to be consistent with the already existing 'proc' condition
check, 'proc' will be used at first ;-)

    $ grep '(proc,' -ur tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/nolibc-test.c 
		CASE_TEST(chmod_net);         EXPECT_SYSZR(proc, chmod("/proc/self/net", 0555)); break;
		CASE_TEST(chmod_self);        EXPECT_SYSER(proc, chmod("/proc/self", 0555), -1, EPERM); break;
		CASE_TEST(chown_self);        EXPECT_SYSER(proc, chown("/proc/self", 0, 0), -1, EPERM); break;
		CASE_TEST(chroot_exe);        EXPECT_SYSER(proc, chroot("/proc/self/exe"), -1, ENOTDIR); break;
		CASE_TEST(link_cross);        EXPECT_SYSER(proc, link("/proc/self/net", "/blah"), -1, EXDEV); break;

Btw, for the /proc/self used in test_stat_timestamps, in the revision of the
'minimal' config support series, instead of using '/', a 'proc' should be added
like above test cases.

Ok, it is reasonable.

Ok, we can pass a valid offset (n*PAGE_SIZE) to mmap() in test_mmap_munmap() or
add a whole new mmap_offset test case with a PAGE_SIZE not aligned offset (such
as 1).
