x86, nfit_test: Add unit test for memcpy_mcsafe()
Given the fact that the ACPI "EINJ" (error injection) facility is not universally available, implement software infrastructure to validate the memcpy_mcsafe() exception handling implementation. For each potential read exception point in memcpy_mcsafe(), inject a emulated exception point at the address identified by 'mcsafe_inject' variable. With this infrastructure implement a test to validate that the 'bytes remaining' calculation is correct for a range of various source buffer alignments. This code is compiled out by default. The CONFIG_MCSAFE_DEBUG configuration symbol needs to be manually enabled by editing Kconfig.debug. I.e. this functionality can not be accidentally enabled by a user / distro, it's only for development.
