Add a skip() message function that stops the test, logs an explanation,

Before loading a livepatch self-test kernel module, first verify that
we've built and installed it by running a 'modprobe --dry-run'.  This
should catch a few environment issues, including !CONFIG_LIVEPATCH and
!CONFIG_TEST_LIVEPATCH.  In these cases, exit gracefully with the new
skip() function.

PS: No need to send v4. The missing "to", suggested by Shuah, could
     get added when pushing the patch into the repo.


I can't make changes to the patch. I can adjust the commit log at times
and correct merge conflicts.

I would like to see v4 for this.

thanks,
