selftests/mm/uffd: don't treat UFFDIO_COPY -ENOENT as a failure
Non-cooperarive uffd events are inherently racy and can happen in parallel
with other userfaultfd operations.
During event tests in uffd-unit-tests, the uffd monitor calls
UFFDIO_UNREGISTER upon receiving UFFD_EVENT_REMOVE.
In parallel, the faulting_process() verifies that the removed memory is
actually zeroed.
If a verification read wins the race with UFFDIO_UNREGISTER, it causes a
missing fault that uffd monitor would receive after UFFDIO_UNREGISTER is
complete. The monitor resolves the fault using UFFDIO_COPY that fails
with -ENOENT which means that VMA has been changed (see commit
27d02568f529 ("userfaultfd: mcopy_atomic: return -ENOENT when no
compatible VMA found")).
Treat -ENOENT returned by UFFDIO_COPY as non-fatal, the same way -EEXIST
is treated for concurrent faults, and don't fail the test.
