I got the following warning with it

In test_ynl_cli.sh line 8:
source "$KSELFTEST_KTAP_HELPERS"
       ^-----------------------^ SC1091 (info): Not following: ../../../testing/selftests/kselftest/ktap_helpers.sh was not specified as input (see shellcheck -x).


It looks the KSELFTEST_KTAP_HELPERS cannot be statically analyzed after
variable expansion.
