Patch series "selftests/filelock: Make output more kselftestish", v4.

This series makes the output from the ofdlocks test a bit easier for
tooling to work with, and also ignores the generated file while we're
here.


This patch (of 3):

The ofdlocks test reports some errors via perror() which does not produce
KTAP output, convert to ksft_perror() which does.
