process_madvise() used to validate the advice while walking each
imported iovec. If the vector has zero total length, vector_madvise()
does not enter the loop and can return success without checking whether
the advice value is valid.

For a local mm, such as process_madvise(PIDFD_SELF, ...), the remote-only
process_madvise_remote_valid() check is skipped. As a result, an invalid
advice can be reported as success when the vector has zero total length.
This differs from madvise(), which rejects an invalid advice before
returning success for a zero-length range.

Validate the generic madvise behavior at the syscall-facing entry points
before any vector walk. In process_madvise(), do this before the
remote-only advice restriction so unsupported advice is rejected with the
same priority for local and remote mm.

Use an errno-returning helper for address/length validation, and handle
zero-length ranges explicitly at the call sites. Requests with valid
advice and zero total length remain a noop and continue to return 0. Add
a selftest that covers invalid advice with a zero-length iovec and an
empty vector, while also checking that a request with valid advice and
zero length still succeeds.

v3:
- Rework range validation into check_input_range() and handle zero-length
  ranges explicitly at the call sites, per Lorenzo.
- Drop the unnecessary errno reset in the selftest, per SJ.

Testing: built mm/madvise.o, bzImage and process_madv; process_madv
passes 7/7 in QEMU.
