[PATCH v3 00/10] selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them

[Brendan Jackman]

I never had much luck running mm selftests so I spent a few hours
digging into why.

Looks like most of the reason is missing SKIP checks, so this series is
just adding a bunch of those that I found. I did not do anything like
all of them, just the ones I spotted in gup_longterm, gup_test, mmap,
userfaultfd and memfd_secret.

It's a bit unfortunate to have to skip those tests when ftruncate()
fails, but I don't have time to dig deep enough into it to actually make
them pass. I have observed the issue on 9pfs and heard rumours that NFS
has a similar problem.

I'm now able to run these test groups successfully:

- mmap
- gup_test
- compaction
- migration
- page_frag
- userfaultfd

Changes in v3:
- Added fix for userfaultfd tests.
- Dropped attempts to use sudo.
- Fixed garbage printf in uffd-stress.
  (Added EXTRA_CFLAGS=-Werror FORCE_TARGETS=1 to my scripts to prevent
   such errors happening again).
- Fixed missing newlines in ksft_test_result_skip() calls.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250221-mm-selftests-v2-0-28c4d66383c5@xxxxxxxxxx

Changes in v2 (Thanks to Dev for the reviews):
- Improve and cleanup some error messages
- Add some extra SKIPs
- Fix misnaming of nr_cpus variable in uffd tests
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250220-mm-selftests-v1-0-9bbf57d64463@xxxxxxxxxx
