lkdtm: arm64: test kernel pointer authentication

This test is specific for arm64. When in-kernel Pointer Authentication
config is enabled, the return address stored in the stack is signed.
This feature helps in ROP kind of attack. If any parameters used to
generate the pac (<key, sp, lr>) is modified then this will fail in
the authentication stage and will lead to abort.

This test changes the input parameter APIA kernel keys to cause abort.
The pac computed from the new key can be same as last due to hash
collision so this is retried for few times as there is no reliable way
to compare the pacs. Even though this test may fail even after retries
but this may cause authentication failure at a later stage in earlier
function returns.

This test can be invoked as,
echo CORRUPT_PAC > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT

or as below if inserted as a module,
insmod lkdtm.ko cpoint_name=DIRECT cpoint_type=CORRUPT_PAC cpoint_count=1
