selftests/powerpc/dscr: Add lockstep test cases to DSCR explicit tests
Add new cases to the relevant tests that use explicitly synchronized threads to test the behaviour across context switches with less randomness. By locking the participants to the same CPU we guarantee a context switch occurs each time they make progress, which is a likely failure point if the kernel is not tracking the thread local DSCR correctly. The random case is left in to keep exercising potential edge cases.

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.
