case must fail in SET_PARAMS instead of being accepted and rejected later
when the device is started.

selftests: ublk: add rotating auto_buf index regression test
Batch AUTO_BUF_REG COMMIT must unregister the old auto_buf index before
storing the next one. Fixed per-tag indexing (A == B) masks bugs that
clear after overwriting io->buf.
Add kublk --rotate_auto_buf so each tag alternates between two sparse
buffer indices, and test_batch_04.sh to exercise that path. Without the
driver fix, the request ref stays stuck and I/O hangs; the test uses a
short timeout and kills the ublk daemon to recover. With the fix, a
small write completes quickly.

selftests: ublk: add ublk auto integrity test
The end-to-end integrity ublk selftest test_integrity_02 requires a
relatively recent fio version to support I/O with integrity buffers. Add
a version test_integrity_03 that uses the block layer's auto integrity
path instead. The auto integrity code doesn't check the application tag,
and doesn't indicate the bad guard/ref tag (just returns EILSEQ). But
it's a good smoke-test of the ublk integrity code and provides coverage
of the auto integrity path as well.

Add --rdonly_shmem_buf option to kublk that registers shared memory

Add test_shmemzc_04.sh which exercises the new flag with a null target,
hugetlbfs buffer, and write workload. Write I/O works because the
server only reads from the shared buffer — the data flows from client
to kernel to the shared pages, and the server reads them out.

Extend _mkfs_mount_test() to accept an optional command that runs

so the command can use relative file paths. Existing callers that
pass only the device are unaffected.

selftests: ublk: improve I/O ordering test with bpftrace
Remove test_generic_01.sh since block layer may reorder I/O, making
the test prone to false positives. Apply the improvements to
test_generic_02.sh instead, which supposes for covering ublk dispatch
io order.
Rework test_generic_02 to verify that ublk dispatch doesn't reorder I/O
by comparing request start order with completion order using bpftrace.
The bpftrace script now:
- Tracks each request's start sequence number in a map keyed by sector
- On completion, verifies the request's start order matches expected
completion order
- Reports any out-of-order completions detected
The test script:
- Wait bpftrace BEGIN code block is run
- Pins fio to CPU 0 for deterministic behavior
- Uses block_io_start and block_rq_complete tracepoints
- Checks bpftrace output for reordering errors

selftests: ublk: add group-based test targets
Add convenient Makefile targets for running specific test groups:
- run_generic, run_batch, run_null, run_loop, run_stripe, run_stress, etc.
- run_all for running all tests
Test groups are auto-detected from TEST_PROGS using pattern matching
(test_<group>_<num>.sh -> group), and targets are generated dynamically
using define/eval templates.
Supports parallel execution via JOBS variable:
- JOBS=1 (default): sequential with kselftest TAP output
- JOBS>1: parallel execution with xargs -P
Usage examples:
make run_null # Sequential execution
make run_stress JOBS=4 # Parallel with 4 jobs
make run_all JOBS=8 # Run all tests with 8 parallel jobs
With JOBS=8, running time of `make run_all` is reduced to 2m2s from 6m5s
in my test VM.
