The x86 selftests frequently register and clean up signal handlers, but
the sethandler() and clearhandler() functions have been redundantly
copied across multiple .c files.
Move these functions to helpers.h to enable reuse across tests,
eliminating around 250 lines of duplicate code.
Converge the error handling by using ksft_exit_fail_msg(), which is
functionally equivalent with err() within the selftest framework.
This change is a prerequisite for the upcoming xstate selftest, which
requires signal handling for registering and cleaning up handlers.

The asm to read and write EFLAGS from userspace is horrible. The
compiler builtins are now available on all supported compilers, so
use them instead.
(The compiler builtins are also unnecessarily ugly, but that's a
more manageable level of ugliness.)

There are several copies of get_eflags() and set_eflags() and they all are
buggy. Consolidate them and fix them. The fixes are:
Add memory clobbers. These are probably unnecessary but they make sure
that the compiler doesn't move something past one of these calls when it
shouldn't.
Respect the redzone on x86_64. There has no failure been observed related
to this, but it's definitely a bug.
