Sorry for the missing [PATCH lttng-tools]

> The `pselect_fd_too_big` test is checking for the case where the `nfds`
> is larger than the number of open files allowed for this process
> (RLIMIT_NOFILE). According to the man page, if `nfds` > RLIMIT_NOFILE is
> evaluate to true the pselect6 syscall should return EINVAL.
>
> In fact, the Linux implementation of the pselect6 syscall[1] does not
> compare the `nfds` and RLIMIT_NOFILE but rather caps `nfds` to the
> highest numbered fd of the current process.
>
> It was observed elsewhere that there is a discrepancy between the manual
> page and the implementation [2].
>
> As a solution, replace the current testcase with one that checks the
> behaviour of the syscall when passed an invalid FD.
