Move the asserts for the many REDIST_REGS accesses into common helpers instead of copy+pasting the same, unhelpful asserts over and over. Not providing the actual (or expected) value makes it unnecessarily painful to debug failures, especially since test_assert() prints the errno unconditionally, e.g. on success, it may print a stale, misleading errno. Use kvm_device_attr_get() to handle the "success" check so that the "success" and "expected == actual" asserts are separated, which will make it far less likely that a user incorrectly assumes the ioctl() failed.

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.
