selinux-testsuite failures, CONFIG_LEGACY_TIOCSTI, and recent Rawhide builds

Hi all,

I just noticed a selinux-testsuite failure in the tests/file test:

# Test 8 got: "512" (file/test at line 103)
#   Expected: "0"
#  file/test line 103 is: ok( $result, 0 );
file/test ................... Failed 1/16 subtests

Digging into this a bit more it looks like the the fnctl(TIOCSTI) call
in test_sigiotask.c is failing due to a recent Rawhide change to
undefine CONFIG_LEGACY_TIOCSTI, disabling TIOCSTI.  Upstream kernel
commit 83efeeeb3d04 ("tty: Allow TIOCSTI to be disabled") has more
information on the Kconfig option.

I'm not going to argue for reenabling CONFIG_LEGACY_TIOCSTI, I think
turning it off is a good idea, but it does mean we need to adjust the
selinux-testsuite.

Also, as a note to the Fedora folks who will see this, maybe don't
tweak the Kconfig knobs when the kernel is at -rc7?  Seeing kernel
test failures late in the -rc7 stage doesn't do wonders for my sanity
;)
