[LTP] [PATCH v2] Add new test cases to syscalls/readv01

[Cyril Hrubis]

Hi!
> Split the original test scenario into two test cases and add:
> - read into buffers bigger than input file
> - read into multiple buffers
> - read into non-NULL buffer with size = 0 (test for kernel commit 19f18459)
> 
> Also use guarded buffers in all IO vectors. Fixes #382

> - Use tst_get_bad_addr() in the zero-size lockup test case

> Re: Timeout.
> The last test case may cause infinite loop in some kernels. The entire test

I've added the linux-git tag to the testcase and pushed, thanks.

Well, we can as well define -1 to be TST_BUF_END and -2 to be
TST_BUF_BAD and change the code to use these.
