This happens on 64-bit big-endian machines.
SO_RCVLOWAT requires an int parameter. However, instead of int, the test
uses unsigned long in one place and size_t in another. Both are 8 bytes
long on 64-bit machines. The kernel, having received the 8 bytes, doesn't
test for the exact size of the parameter, it only cares that it's >=
sizeof(int), and casts the 4 lower-addressed bytes to an int, which, on
a big-endian machine, contains 0. 0 doesn't trigger an error, SO_RCVLOWAT
returns with success and the socket stays with the default SO_RCVLOWAT = 1,
which results in vsock_test failures, while vsock_perf doesn't even notice
that it's failed to change it.

Fixes: b1346338fbae ("vsock_test: POLLIN + SO_RCVLOWAT test")
Fixes: 542e893fbadc ("vsock/test: two tests to check credit update logic")
Fixes: 8abbffd27ced ("test/vsock: vsock_perf utility")

Notes:
    The problem was found on s390 (big endian), while x86-64 didn't show it. After this fix, all tests pass on s390.
Changes for v3:
- fix the same problem in vsock_perf and update commit message
Changes for v2:
- add "Fixes:" lines to the commit message
