The x86 selftests frequently register and clean up signal handlers, but the sethandler() and clearhandler() functions have been redundantly copied across multiple .c files. Move these functions to helpers.h to enable reuse across tests, eliminating around 250 lines of duplicate code. Converge the error handling by using ksft_exit_fail_msg(), which is functionally equivalent with err() within the selftest framework. This change is a prerequisite for the upcoming xstate selftest, which requires signal handling for registering and cleaning up handlers. Signed-off-by: Chang S.

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.
