No, running the poisoner program again doesn't show dirty memory
immediately after mmap.
I assume that there are some differences on how my poisoner program
using hugepage and how testpmd using hugepage. I notice that testpmd
leaves some files under /dev/hugepages/rtemap_xxx even after testpmd
process exits. But my program didn't create any file under
/dev/hugepages/.

issue on a Virtual Machine of kernel 4.18.0-305.12.1.el8_4.x86_64.(2M
page size insetad of 1G)
