Mark Brown 34dce23f7e selftests/clone3: Report descriptive test names
The clone3() selftests currently report test results in a format that does
not mesh entirely well with automation. They log output for each test such
as:

  # [1382411] Trying clone3() with flags 0 (size 0)
  # I am the parent (1382411). My child's pid is 1382412
  # I am the child, my PID is 1382412
  # [1382411] clone3() with flags says: 0 expected 0
  ok 1 [1382411] Result (0) matches expectation (0)

This is not ideal for automated parsers since the text after the "ok 1" is
treated as the test name when comparing runs by a lot of automation (tests
routinely get renumbered due to things like new tests being added based on
logical groupings). The PID means that the test names will frequently vary
and the rest of the name being a description of results means several tests
have identical text there.

Address this by refactoring things so that we have a static descriptive
name for each test which we use when logging passes, failures and skips
and since we now have a stable name for the test to hand log that before
starting the test to address the common issue reading logs where the test
name is only printed after any diagnostics. The result is:

 # Running test 'simple clone3()'
 # [1562777] Trying clone3() with flags 0 (size 0)
 # I am the parent (1562777). My child's pid is 1562778
 # I am the child, my PID is 1562778
 # [1562777] clone3() with flags says: 0 expected 0
 ok 1 simple clone3()

In order to handle skips a bit more neatly this is done in a moderately
invasive fashion where we move from a sequence of function calls to having
an array of test parameters. This hopefully also makes it a little easier
to see what the tests are doing when looking at both the source and the
logs.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
