selftests: mm: perform some system cleanup before using hugepages
When running with CATEGORY= (thp | hugetlb) we see a large numbers of
tests failing. These failures are due to not being able to allocate a
hugepage and normally occur on memory contrainted systems or when using
large page sizes.
drop_cache and compact_memory before the tests for a higher chance at a
successful hugepage allocation.
