Add two helpers to register/unregister to an uffd. Use them to drop
duplicate codes.
This patch also drops assert_expected_ioctls_present() and
get_expected_ioctls(). Reasons:
- It'll need a lot of effort to pass test_type==HUGETLB into it from
the upper, so it's the simplest way to get rid of another global var
- The ioctls returned in UFFDIO_REGISTER is hardly useful at all,
because any app can already detect kernel support on any ioctl via its
corresponding UFFD_FEATURE_*. The check here is for sanity mostly but
it's probably destined no user app will even use it.
- It's not friendly to one future goal of uffd to run on old
kernels, the problem is get_expected_ioctls() compiles against
UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS, which is a value that can change depending on
where the test is compiled, rather than reflecting what the kernel
underneath has. It means it'll report false negatives on old kernels
so it's against our will.
So let's make our lives easier.

Patch series "mm: (pte|pmd)_mkdirty() should not unconditionally allow for
write access".
This is the follow-up on [1], adding selftests (testing for known issues
we added workarounds for and other issues that haven't been fixed yet),
fixing sparc64, reverting the workarounds, and perform one cleanup.
The patch from [1] was modified slightly (updated/extended patch
description, dropped one unnecessary NOP instruction from the ASM in
__pte_mkhwwrite()).
Retested on x86_64 and sparc64 (sun4u in QEMU).
I scanned most architectures to make sure their (pte|pmd)_mkdirty()
handling is correct. To be sure, we can run the selftests and find out if
other architectures are still affectes (loongarch was fixed recently as
well).
Based on master for now. I don't expect surprises regarding mm-tress, but
I can rebase if there are any problems.
This patch (of 6):
The COW selftest can deal with THP not being configured. So move error
handling of read_pmd_pagesize() into the callers such that we can reuse it
in the COW selftest.
