[PATCH] dev: selftests/mm/uffd: don't treat UFFDIO_COPY -ENOENT as a failure

[Mike Rapoport <rppt@kernel.org>]

From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@kernel.org>

Non-cooperarive uffd events are inherently racy and can happen in
parallel with other userfaultfd operations.

During event tests in uffd-unit-tests, the uffd monitor calls
UFFDIO_UNREGISTER upon receiving UFFD_EVENT_REMOVE.

In parallel, the faulting_process() verifies that the removed memory is
actually zeroed.

If a verification read wins the race with UFFDIO_UNREGISTER, it causes a
missing fault that uffd monitor would receive after UFFDIO_UNREGISTER is
complete. The monitor resolves the fault using UFFDIO_COPY that fails
with -ENOENT which means that VMA has been changed (see commit
27d02568f529 ("userfaultfd: mcopy_atomic: return -ENOENT when no
compatible VMA found")).

Treat -ENOENT returned by UFFDIO_COPY as non-fatal, the same way
-EEXIST is treated for concurrent faults, and don't fail the test.

I've noticed transient faults of uffd-unit-tests in the CI runs [1]
and found this issue with uffd-unit-tests.

The issue is longstanding and it's not related to or exposed by the
recent uffd refactoring.

I didn't even look for a Fixes: commit, as this is a selftest only and I
don't see a reason to backport it.
