The body only explains the mechanism, not the motivation. Add a sentence
explaining why this helper is needed — e.g. "Without this two-step probe,
requesting an unsupported feature in UFFDIO_API fails with EINVAL,
causing tests to TBROK instead of TCONF."

Please verify this SHA resolves in the full LTP history; it is not
reachable in this clone.

Pre-existing issues noticed in the surrounding code (not introduced
by this patch):

- testcases/kernel/syscalls/userfaultfd/userfaultfd05.c — `wp_fault_seen`
  is never reset to 0 at the top of run(); on multi-iteration runs (-i N)
  the second iteration may falsely pass.
