Add tests to assert that PIDFD_SELF* correctly refers to the current thread and process. We explicitly test pidfd_send_signal(), however We defer testing of mm-specific functionality which uses pidfd, namely process_madvise() and process_mrelease() to mm testing (though note the latter can not be sensibly tested as it would require the testing process to be dying). We also correct the pidfd_open_test.c fields which refer to .request_mask whereas the UAPI header refers to .mask, which otherwise break the import of the UAPI header.

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 reStructuredText 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.
