Is there any printing of the tests being done? Looks to me that the tests
only print something if they fail. Thus "skip" and "pass" are basically the
same (if "skip" is simply not to do the test).

I mean, we could simply have:


 static void __init
 plain(void)
 {
 	int err;
 
+	if (debug_never_hash_pointers)
+		return;
