This would return FAIL exit code to kselftest executor as the planned tests
were 88 while executed tests are only 1. Hence FAIL error code would be
returned. This is completely wrong.

This would return SKIP exit code which is correct.

Having "1..88" misrepresents the number of executed tests. This is against
the TAP specs. The total number of tests must be printed after finding out
that initial conditions are fulfilled. From specs: [1]
