Make sure that both variants of the nasty TF-in-compat-syscall are exercised regardless of what vendor's CPU is running the tests. Also change the intentional signal after SYSCALL to use ud2, which is a lot more comprehensible. This crashes the kernel due to an FSGSBASE bug right now. This test *also* detects a bug in KVM when run on an Intel host. KVM people, feel free to use it to help debug. There's a bunch of code in this test to warn instead of going into an infinite looping when the bug gets triggered.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
