Update the arch_prctl test to check the permission bitmap whether the
requested feature is added as expected or not.
Every non-dynamic feature that is enabled is permitted already for use.
TILECFG is not dynamic feature. Ensure the bit is always on from
ARCH_GET_XCOMP_PERM.

XSAVE state is thread-local. The kernel switches between thread
state at context switch time. Generally, running a selftest for
a while will naturally expose it to some context switching and
and will test the XSAVE code.
Instead of just hoping that the tests get context-switched at
random times, force context-switches on purpose. Spawn off a few
userspace threads and force context-switches between them.
Ensure that the kernel correctly context switches each thread's
unique AMX state.

AMX TILEDATA is a very large XSAVE feature. It could have caused
nasty XSAVE buffer space waste in two places:
* Signal stacks
* Kernel task_struct->fpu buffers
To avoid this waste, neither of these buffers have AMX state by
default. The non-default features are called "dynamic" features.
There is an arch_prctl(ARCH_REQ_XCOMP_PERM) which allows a task
to declare that it wants to use AMX or other "dynamic" XSAVE
features. This arch_prctl() ensures that sufficient sigaltstack
space is available before it will succeed. It also expands the
task_struct buffer.
Functions of this test:
* Test arch_prctl(ARCH_REQ_XCOMP_PERM). Ensure that it checks for
proper sigaltstack sizing and that the sizing is enforced for
future sigaltstack calls.
* Ensure that ARCH_REQ_XCOMP_PERM is inherited across fork()
* Ensure that TILEDATA use before the prctl() is fatal
* Ensure that TILEDATA is cleared across fork()
Note: Generally, compiler support is needed to do something with
AMX. Instead, directly load AMX state from userspace with a
plain XSAVE. Do not depend on the compiler.
