There are several test cases still using exit 0 when they need to be

to distinguish the proper return status.
Criterion to filter out what should be fixed in selftests directory:
grep -r "exit 0" -B1 | grep -i skip
This change might cause some false-positives if people are running
these test scripts directly and only checking their return codes,
which will change from 0 to 4. However I think the impact should be
small as most of our scripts here are already using this skip code.
And there will be no such issue if running them with the kselftest
framework.
V2: router_mpath_nh.sh and outer_mpath_nh_res.sh sources lib.sh,
there is no need to assign ksft_skip value in these two.

I want to note that defining ksft_skip=4 in every test separately is the
current practice. I agree with Willem (in a parallel thread) that this
stuff should live in a library of its own, but there is none currently.
When there is, it looks like the conversion would be mechanical.
Which is to say, IMHO this patch makes sense on its own as an
incremental improvement.

Hello folks,
any other comment on this patch? Or if I should break this down to
smaller patches for different suites in kselftests?
Thanks!

Yes plase, break them into individual patches.
Breaking this into individual patches makes it easier to pull them
in and allows us handle dependencies better.
thanks,
