There is an spelling mistake in an a test error message. Fix it.

get_gate_page() is a piece of somewhat alarming code to make
get_user_pages() work on the vsyscall page. Test it via
process_vm_readv().

If vsyscall=none accidentally still allowed vsyscalls, the test wouldn't
fail. Fix it.

Even if vsyscall=none, user page faults on the vsyscall page are reported
as though the PROT bit in the error code was set. Add a comment explaining
why this is probably okay and display the value in the test case.
While at it, explain why the behavior is correct with respect to PKRU.
Modify also the selftest to print the odd error code so that there is a
way to demonstrate the odd behaviour.
If anyone really cares about more accurate emulation, the behaviour could
be changed. But that needs a real good justification.

Since Linux v3.2, vsyscalls have been deprecated and slow. From v3.2
on, Linux had three vsyscall modes: "native", "emulate", and "none".
"emulate" is the default. All known user programs work correctly in
emulate mode, but vsyscalls turn into page faults and are emulated.
This is very slow. In "native" mode, the vsyscall page is easily
usable as an exploit gadget, but vsyscalls are a bit faster -- they
turn into normal syscalls. (This is in contrast to vDSO functions,
which can be much faster than syscalls.) In "none" mode, there are
no vsyscalls.
For all practical purposes, "native" was really just a chicken bit
in case something went wrong with the emulation. It's been over six
years, and nothing has gone wrong. Delete it.

Replace a couple of magically connected buffer length literal constants with
a common definition that makes their relationship obvious. Also document
why our sscanf() usage is safe.
No intended functional changes.

This tests that the vsyscall entries do what they're expected to do.
It also confirms that attempts to read the vsyscall page behave as
expected.
If changes are made to the vsyscall code or its memory map handling,
running this test in all three of vsyscall=none, vsyscall=emulate,
and vsyscall=native are helpful.
(Because it's easy, this also compares the vsyscall results to their
vDSO equivalents.)
Note to KAISER backporters: please test this under all three
vsyscall modes. Also, in the emulate and native modes, make sure
that test_vsyscall_64 agrees with the command line or config
option as to which mode you're in. It's quite easy to mess up
the kernel such that native mode accidentally emulates
or vice versa.
Greg, etc: please backport this to all your Meltdown-patched
kernels. It'll help make sure the patches didn't regress
vsyscalls.
