The test is issuing larger IO workload. This depends on being able to
allocate larger chunks of linear memory. nvme-cli used to use libhugetlb
to automatically allocate the HugeTLB pool. Though nvme-cli dropped the
dependency on the library, thus the test should try to provision the
system accordingly.

Thanks, applied.

I note here that an opportunity is left to improve stability of nvme-cli linear
memory allocation in the test case as discussed [1].
