[RFC PATCH 1/4] selftests: rseq: Use fixed value as rseq_len parameter

From: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>
Date: 2020-07-14 03:03:58
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: kernel selftest framework, restartable sequences support, the rest · Maintainers: Shuah Khan, Shuah Khan, Mathieu Desnoyers, Peter Zijlstra, "Paul E. McKenney", Boqun Feng, Linus Torvalds

The rseq registration and unregistration expect a fixed-size length
(32 bytes). In preparation to extend struct rseq, pass a fixed value
rather than the size of the rseq structure.
