Was this the conclusion of the kstf_perror() discussion with Reinette? I
expected a bit different outcome when I stopped following it...
In any case, it would be nice though if ksft_perror() (or some kselftest.h
function yet to be added with a different name) would accept full printf
interface and just add the errno string into the end of the string so one
would not need to build constructs like this at all.
It will require a bit of macro trickery into kselftest.h. I don't know how
it should handle the case where somebody just passes a char pointer to it,
not a string literal, but I guess it would just throw an error while
compiling if somebody tries to do that as the macro string literal
concatenation could not build useful/compilable token.
It would make these prints informative enough to become actually useful
without needed to resort to preparing the string in advance which seems
to be required almost every single case with the current interface.
