userfaultfd: selftest: exercise -EEXIST only in background transfer
I was stress testing some backports and with high load, after some time, the latest version of the selftest showed some false positive in connection with the uffdio_copy_retry. This seems to fix it while still exercising -EEXIST in the background transfer once in a while. The fork child will quit after the last UFFDIO_COPY is run, so a repeated UFFDIO_COPY may not return -EEXIST. This change restricts the -EEXIST stress to the background transfer where the memory can't go away from under it. Also updated uffdio_zeropage, so the interface is consistent.
