Subject: selftests: forwarding: Add a helper to skip test when using veth pairs
From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 66e131861ab7bf754b50813216f5c6885cd32d63 upstream.
A handful of tests require physical loopbacks to be used instead of veth
pairs. Add a helper that these tests will invoke in order to be skipped
when executed with veth pairs.
Fixes: 64916b57c0b1 ("selftests: forwarding: Add speed and auto-negotiation test")
