Seems very useful for the test suite, thanks.

Minor nit: could directly return it, f.e.:

	return test_range[0] >= 0 && (test_id < test_range[0] ||
                                       test_id > test_range[1]);

Btw, for the range test in prepare_bpf_tests(), you could also reject
a negative lower bound index right there.
