Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] selftests: memfd: error out test process when child
 test fails

Before this change, a test runner using this self test would see a
return code of 0 when the tests using a child process (namely the
MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL and MFD_EXEC tests) failed, masking test failures.

Fixes: 11f75a01448f ("selftests/memfd: add tests for MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL MFD_EXEC")
