Commit 124a3c58b8 ("tests/qtest/migration: Move ufd_version_check to
utils") moved the ufd_version_check() function to another file but
failed to bring along the <sys/syscall> include, which is necessary to
pull in <asm/unistd.h> for __NR_userfaultd.
Restore the missing include.
While here, remove the ifdef __linux__ that's redundant and fix a
couple of typos.

Ohhhhhhh.. so postcopy tests will always be skipped as of now? Maybe worth
explicit mention that in the commit message if so, only when you merge.

Maybe we don't need to be as careful on old kernels anymore especially in
tests, because userfaultfd syscall existed for ~10 years. So if we want we
can start requiring __NR_userfaultfd present for __linux__, then no way to
miss such spot next time.

Yes, I think that check is obsolete, based on our supported platforms
list. It would suffice to just check __linux__.

This breaks the cross builds. It seems the __NR_userfaultfd was actually
stopping several archs from reaching ufd_version_check(). Since
<sys/ioctl.h> is under HOST_X86_64, these new instances now fail to find
the 'ioctl' symbol:
https://gitlab.com/farosas/qemu/-/pipelines/1594332399
Of course I could just include <sys/ioctl.h> unconditionally, but the
fact that new code is not being built means the assumption that we can
imply __NR_userfaultfd from __linux__ alone is not correct.

I think removing __NR_userfaultfd is still correct. The problem is that
the ufd_version_check code is wrapped in a conditional that is not the
same as the conditional that pulls in ioctl.h. That pre-existing bug
should be fixed regardless, and once that's done, removing __NR_userfaultfd
wouldn't be an issue.

Ah, the <sys/ioctl.h> include used to be under the userfaultfd ifdefs. I
got confused because kvm_dirty_ring_supported() also needs the ioctl and
it was introduced without moving the ioctl to a common ifdef.

What is the new code referenced here? I still don't yet understand how it
would fail if we move sys/ioctl.h out.
PS: we don't necessarily need to do it right now to remove that ifdef, but
I'm just curious.
