Ideally we would want that all the test are updated to output better logs
than what they have currently. We may update some more tests. This is
something we want the maintainers to get aware of that kselftest.h wrapper
provide helper function to better write the tests and then all contributors
start using it in new tests and older tests may also get updated in the
process.
