[LTP] [PATCH v3 00/15] fchroot: add fchroot() testing suite

[Andrea Cervesato <andrea.cervesato@suse.de>]

fchroot() is a new syscall introduced in the Linux v7.3 development
cycle together with failfs, a kernel internal filesystem where every
operation fails with EOPNOTSUPP. The syscall is the fd-based
counterpart of chroot(2): it moves the process root to the directory
referenced by a file descriptor, or to the failfs root via the
FD_FAILFS_ROOT sentinel.

The series first updates the architecture syscall number tables and
adds lapi fallback definitions for the new fd sentinels, then adds 13
tests covering:

- the basic directory fd use case and the argument error paths
  (EINVAL, EBADF, ENOTDIR)
- the permission checks, both execute permission and CAP_SYS_CHROOT
- entering failfs as root: EOPNOTSUPP on every absolute lookup,
  unreachable working directory, root that can not be referenced or
  pinned, path walks anchored at file descriptors, execve blocked,
  fork inheritance and the setns() escape
- the unprivileged entry rules: no_new_privs, shared fs_struct and
  the already chrooted case

fchroot() is not part of any released kernel yet, so the tests are
added to runtest/staging and each patch carries the [STAGING] prefix
as required by the LTP ground rules.

The testing suite creation has been assisted by GLM 5.3.
