Subsequent tests do require direct manipulation of the SIE instruction. This commit introduces the SIE definition for the selftests.
AFAIK ucontrol doesn't allow to manipulate the instruction, it allows manipulation of the *SIE control block* that's handed over as an operand to SIE.
I will clarify that.

There are already definitions of this within the kernel. This differs in two ways.
- This is the first definition of this in userspace.
- This does not require atomicity for the flags.
With the userspace definition of the SIE block layout now being present we can reuse the values in other tests where applicable.

Code looks fine though.
