In rseq_test, there are two threads, which are vCPU thread and migration worker separately. Unfortunately, the test has the wrong PID passed to sched_setaffinity() in the migration worker. It forces migration on the migration worker because zeroed PID represents the calling thread, which is the migration worker itself. It means the vCPU thread is never enforced to migration and it can migrate at any time, which eventually leads to failure as the following logs show.

Fix the issue by passing correct parameter, TID of the vCPU thread, to sched_setaffinity() in the migration worker.
