Axel Rasmussen 8ba6e86408 userfaultfd/selftests: reinitialize test context in each test
Currently, the context (fds, mmap-ed areas, etc.) are global.  Each test
mutates this state in some way, in some cases really "clobbering it"
(e.g., the events test mremap-ing area_dst over the top of area_src, or
the minor faults tests overwriting the count_verify values in the test
areas).  We run the tests in a particular order, each test is careful to
make the right assumptions about its starting state, etc.

But, this is fragile.  It's better for a test's success or failure to not
depend on what some other prior test case did to the global state.

To that end, clear and reinitialize the test context at the start of each
test case, so whatever prior test cases did doesn't affect future tests.

This is particularly relevant to this series because the events test's
mremap of area_dst screws up assumptions the minor fault test was relying
on.  This wasn't a problem for hugetlb, as we don't mremap in that case.
