Explicitly set the exception vector to #UD when potentially injecting an exception in sync_regs_test's subtests that try to detect TOCTOU bugs in KVM's handling of exceptions injected by userspace. A side effect of the original KVM bug was that KVM would clear the vector, but relying on KVM to clear the vector (i.e. make it #DE) makes it less likely that the test would ever find *new* KVM bugs, e.g. because only the first iteration would run with a legal vector to start. Explicitly inject #UD for race_events_inj_pen() as well, e.g. so that it doesn't inherit the illegal 255 vector from race_events_exc(), which currently runs first.

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.
