Slightly nitpicky here, but the tests were originally written with the
livepatch module names via variables like $MOD_LIVEPATCH.  Would using
$MOD_LIVEPATCH{1,2,3} help indicate that their specifics aren't really
interesting, that we just need 3 of them?

I was going to suggest that we might protect against a situation where
other livepatch modules were active, that a simple count wouldn't be
sufficient.  But then I thought about this test, atomic replace!
Anything previously loaded is going to be pushed aside anyway.

So maybe (in another patch or set) it would be worth enhancing
functions.sh :: start_test() do a quick sanity check to see that the
initial conditions are safe?  That might also prevent some collateral
damage when test A fails and leaves the world a strange place for tests
B, C, etc.

Similar minor nit here, too.  If we think copy/pasting all the $MOD_FOO
is annoying, I am fine with leaving this as is.  I don't have a strong
opinion other than following some convention.

With that, I'm happy to ack as-is or with variable names.
