Currently, we have 2 such files:

	tests/intel-ci/blacklist-pre-merge.txt
	tests/intel-ci/blacklist.txt

IMO, a rename from <blacklist> to whatever now-preferred namespace
should touch both.

Yet, renames like that will break CI, so symlinks to the old names
are required.

If you're ok with that, I can prepare an upcoming series with
the renames, including renaming from "*blacklist*" to
"*blocklist*" namespace and adding the needed symlinks to preserve
CI from regressions.
