0b20c36c11 mm/madvise: reject invalid process_madvise() advice for zero-length vectors
process_madvise() used to validate the advice while walking each imported
iovec.  If the vector has zero total length, vector_madvise() does not
enter the loop and can return success without checking whether the advice
value is valid.

For a local mm, such as process_madvise(PIDFD_SELF, ...), the remote-only
process_madvise_remote_valid() check is skipped.  As a result, an invalid
advice can be reported as success when the vector has zero total length. 
This differs from madvise(), which rejects an invalid advice before
returning success for a zero-length range.

Validate the generic madvise behavior at the syscall-facing entry points
before any vector walk.  In process_madvise(), do this before the
remote-only advice restriction so unsupported advice is rejected with the
same priority for local and remote mm.

Use an errno-returning helper for address/length validation, and handle
zero-length ranges explicitly at the call sites.  Requests with valid
advice and zero total length remain a noop and continue to return 0.  Add
a selftest that covers invalid advice with a zero-length iovec and an
empty vector, while also checking that a request with valid advice and
zero length still succeeds.

e6fbd1759c selftests: complete kselftest include centralization
This follow-up patch completes centralization of kselftest.h and
ksefltest_harness.h includes in remaining seltests files, replacing all
relative paths with a non-relative paths using shared -I include path in
lib.mk

Tested with gcc-13.3 and clang-18.1, and cross-compiled successfully on
riscv, arm64, x86_64 and powerpc arch.
