Hi Linus,

Please pull the following Kselftest update for Linux 5.8-rc2.

This Kselftest update for Linux 5.8-rc2 consists of:

- ftrace "requires:" list for simplifying and unifying requirement
   checks for each test case, adding "requires:" line instead of
   checking required ftrace interfaces in each test case.
- a minor spelling correction patch

thanks,
-- Shuah
