Subject: [PATCH] rseq/selftests: fix parametrized test with -fpie
On x86-64, the parametrized selftest code for rseq crashes with a
segmentation fault when compiled with -fpie. This happens when the
param_test binary is loaded at an address beyond 32-bit on x86-64.
The issue is caused by use of a 32-bit register to hold the address
of the loop counter variable.
Fix this by using a 64-bit register to calculate the address of the
loop counter variables as an offset from rip.
