[PATCH net-next 0/2] vsock/test: check for null-ptr-deref when transport changes

[Luigi Leonardi]

This series introduces a new test that checks for a null pointer 
dereference that may happen when there is a transport change[1]. This 
bug was fixed in [2]

First commit introduces a new utility function that checks whether a 
timeout has expired or not without exiting the test. This is required in 
the test because timeout expiration does not mean that the test failed.

Second commit is the test itself. Note that this test *cannot* fail, it 
hangs if it triggers a kernel oops. The intended use-case is to run it 
and then check if there is any oops in the dmesg.

This test is based on Michal's python reproducer[3].
