The fp-stress load programs call sched_yield() on each iteration of
their test loops in order to encourage preemption, except for sve-test
where the call is commented out since the SVE state is destroyed by
system calls. This is most likely counterproductive since we are more
likely to notice corruption if preemption happens while setting or
reading the register state, and since fp-stress starts multiple test
programs per CPU we should have no trouble observing preemption anyway.

Remove these calls, including the commented out one in sve-test, both
due to this and in order to prepare for running as KVM guests.

We also remove the inclusions of unistd.h since we no longer need it in
any of the programs. za-test had an unreferenced local label in the
middle of the sched_yield(), remove that too.
