>Description:
The attached patch...
- ... frees buf after use.
- ... sets .rlim_cur/.rlim_max for RLIMIT_MEMLOCK to RLIM_INFINITY to resolve false positives with the test case then trying to lock memory with mlock (on FreeBSD) / mmap (on NetBSD). This is being done because sometimes the process limits are set much lower for root depending on the test host.
