Yes, we should have them print out a couple sentences explaining the
purpose. Do you think we can just take the description that you wrote
on your test case summary page?

I think the wrapper script should be pretty straightforward; it should
just define the number of loops to run, then invoke all of the
hotplug*.sh tests in the directory. The little for loop I wrote
yesterday could be used as a starting point.

Mark, I'm thinking that these of variables should be in ALL_CAPS case.
Maybe also call the totalloops variable LOOPS, and the per-testcase
variables HOTPLUG03_LOOPS, etc.
