selftests: vDSO: ensure vgetrandom works in a time namespace
After verifying that vDSO getrandom does work, which ensures that the
RNG is initialized, test to see if it also works inside of a time
namespace. This is important to test, because the vvar pages get
swizzled around there. If the arch code isn't careful, the RNG will
appear uninitialized inside of a time namespace.
Because broken code makes the RNG appear uninitialized, test that
everything works by issuing a call to vgetrandom from a fork in a time
namespace, and use ptrace to ensure that the actual syscall getrandom
doesn't get called. If it doesn't get called, then the test succeeds.
