I was thinking about doing exactly this yesterday, it's nice to see it
done so fast :-).

The patches 1-5 are pushed with two changes:

* There is no need to set the .needs_root flag for exec*01 testcases

* It's wrong to do waitpid() for the child that reports the results
(and it's even written in the test-writing-guidelines) that is because
tst_brk() is propagated using the exit value, hence children that use
the test library API has to be waited for in the test library (which
happens automatically once the main test process exits the test
function)
