Subject: selftests/x86: Add tests for the STR and SLDT instructions

From: Ricardo Neri <ricardo.neri-calderon@linux.intel.com>

commit a9e017d5619eb371460c8e516f4684def62bef3a upstream.

The STR and SLDT instructions are not valid when running on virtual-8086
mode and generate an invalid operand exception. These two instructions are
protected by the Intel User-Mode Instruction Prevention (UMIP) security
feature. In protected mode, if UMIP is enabled, these instructions generate
a general protection fault if called from CPL > 0. Linux traps the general
protection fault and emulates the instructions sgdt, sidt and smsw; but not
str and sldt.

These tests are added to verify that the emulation code does not emulate
these two instructions but the expected invalid operand exception is
seen.

Tests fallback to exit with INT3 in case emulation does happen.
