The Linux kernel rseq uapi header has a broken layout for the rseq_cs.ptr field on 32-bit little endian architectures. The entire rseq_cs.ptr field is planned for removal, leaving only the 64-bit rseq_cs.ptr64 field available. Both glibc and librseq use their own copy of the Linux kernel uapi header, where they introduce proper union fields to access to the 32-bit low order bits of the rseq_cs pointer on 32-bit architectures. Introduce a copy of the Linux kernel uapi headers in the Linux kernel selftests.

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.
