Mathieu Desnoyers f491e073b9 selftests/rseq: Introduce rseq_get_abi() helper
commit e546cd48ccc456074ddb8920732aef4af65d7ca7 upstream.

This is done in preparation for the selftest uplift to become compatible
with glibc-2.35.

glibc-2.35 exposes the rseq per-thread data in the TCB, accessible
at an offset from the thread pointer, rather than through an actual
Thread-Local Storage (TLS) variable, as the kernel selftests initially
expected.

Introduce a rseq_get_abi() helper, initially using the __rseq_abi
TLS variable, in preparation for changing this userspace ABI for one
which is compatible with glibc-2.35.

Note that the __rseq_abi TLS and glibc-2.35's ABI for per-thread data
cannot actively coexist in a process, because the kernel supports only
a single rseq registration per thread.
