selftests/proc: test PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl while vma is concurrently modified

Patch series " execute PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl under per-vma lock", v4.

With /proc/pid/maps now being read under per-vma lock protection we can
reuse parts of that code to execute PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl also without
taking mmap_lock.  The change is designed to reduce mmap_lock contention
and prevent PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl calls from blocking address space updates.

This patchset was split out of the original patchset [1] that introduced
per-vma lock usage for /proc/pid/maps reading.  It contains PROCMAP_QUERY
tests, code refactoring patch to simplify the main change and the actual
transition to per-vma lock.

This patch (of 3):

Extend /proc/pid/maps tearing tests to verify PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl operation
correctness while the vma is being concurrently modified.
