KVM: selftests: Use EPOLL in userfaultfd_util reader threads

With multiple reader threads POLLing a single UFFD, the demand paging test
suffers from the thundering herd problem: performance degrades as the
number of reader threads is increased. Solve this issue [1] by switching
the the polling mechanism to EPOLL + EPOLLEXCLUSIVE.

Also, change the error-handling convention of uffd_handler_thread_fn.
Instead of just printing errors and returning early from the polling
loop, check for them via TEST_ASSERT(). "return NULL" is reserved for a
successful exit from uffd_handler_thread_fn, i.e. one triggered by a
write to the exit pipe.

Performance samples generated by the command in [2] are given below.

Num Reader Threads, Paging Rate (POLL), Paging Rate (EPOLL)
1      249k      185k
2      201k      235k
4      186k      155k
16     150k      217k
32     89k       198k

[1] Single-vCPU performance does suffer somewhat.
