[RFC PATCH v2 2/2] selftests/x86: sysret_rip: Add more syscall tests with respect to `%rcx` and `%r11`

[Ammar Faizi]

From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Test that:

 - "syscall" in a FRED system doesn't clobber %rcx and %r11.
 - "syscall" in a non-FRED system sets %rcx=%rip and %r11=%rflags.

Test them out with a trivial system call like __NR_getppid and friends
which are extremely likely to return with SYSRET on an IDT system; check
that it returns a nonnegative value and then save the result.
