Yes. I haven't pulled in the updated tests, so I haven't hit the errors yet
(nor have I merged my work with the switch to the new name yet). So those
will most definitely break my tests.
But because it's a more generic issue, we should have a way to find what to
use. Perhaps add to the test.d/functions, something like:
FUNCTION_FORK=`(if grep '\bkernel_clone\b' /proc/kallsyms > /dev/null; then
echo kernel_clone; else echo '_do_fork'; fi)`
and use $FUNCTION_FORK everywhere that references it.
