In rseq_test, there are two threads, which are vCPU thread and migration
worker separately. Unfortunately, the test has the wrong PID passed to
sched_setaffinity() in the migration worker. It forces migration on the
migration worker because zeroed PID represents the calling thread, which
is the migration worker itself. It means the vCPU thread is never enforced
to migration and it can migrate at any time, which eventually leads to
failure as the following logs show.

Fix the issue by passing correct parameter, TID of the vCPU thread, to
sched_setaffinity() in the migration worker.

Rework the CPU selection in the migration worker to ensure the specified
number of migrations are performed when the test iteslf is affined to a
subset of CPUs. The existing logic skips iterations if the target CPU is
not in the original set of possible CPUs, which causes the test to fail
if too many iterations are skipped.

Only performed 4 KVM_RUNs, task stalled too much?
Calculate the min/max possible CPUs as a cheap "best effort" to avoid
high runtimes when the test is affined to a small percentage of CPUs.
Alternatively, a list or xarray of the possible CPUs could be used, but
even in a horrendously inefficient setup, such optimizations are not
needed because the runtime is completely dominated by the cost of
migrating the task, and the absolute runtime is well under a minute in
even truly absurd setups, e.g. running on a subset of vCPUs in a VM that
is heavily overcommited (16 vCPUs per pCPU).

While x86 does not require any additional setup to use the ucall
infrastructure, arm64 needs to set up the MMIO address used to signal a
ucall to userspace. rseq_test does not initialize the MMIO address,
resulting in the test spinning indefinitely.
Fix the issue by calling ucall_init() during setup.

Add a test to verify an rseq's CPU ID is updated correctly if the task is
migrated while the kernel is handling KVM_RUN. This is a regression test
for a bug introduced by commit 72c3c0fe54 ("x86/kvm: Use generic xfer
to guest work function"), where TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME would be cleared by KVM
without updating rseq, leading to a stale CPU ID and other badness.
