Weihong Zhang 833c12ce0f selftests/x86/lam: Add inherit test cases for linear-address masking
LAM is enabled per-thread and gets inherited on fork(2)/clone(2). exec()
reverts LAM status to the default disabled state.

There are two test scenarios:

 - Fork test cases:

   These cases were used to test the inheritance of LAM for per-thread,
   Child process generated by fork() should inherit LAM feature from
   parent process, Child process can get the LAM mode same as parent
   process.

 - Execve test cases:

   Processes generated by execve() are different from processes
   generated by fork(), these processes revert LAM status to disabled
   status.

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.
