I'm not sure that is entirely correct. The 'skip' test cases come from
LTP itself. A few examples below:

bdflush01 2 TCONF : bdflush01.c:118: syscall(-1) __NR_bdflush not
supported on your arch
bdflush01 3 TCONF : bdflush01.c:118: Remaining cases not appropriate
for configuration

cacheflush01 1 TCONF : cacheflush01.c:134: syscall(-1) __NR_cacheflush
not supported on your arch
cacheflush01 2 TCONF : cacheflush01.c:134: Remaining cases not
appropriate for configuration

chown01_16 1 TCONF :
/usr/src/debug/ltp/20170929-r0/git/testcases/kernel/syscalls/chown/../utils/compat_16.h:156:
16-bit version of chown() is not supported on your platform
chown01_16 2 TCONF :
/usr/src/debug/ltp/20170929-r0/git/testcases/kernel/syscalls/chown/../utils/compat_16.h:156:
Remaining cases not appropriate for configuration

and so on. We have the list of tests that are omitted because they
cause troubles (prevent test suite to complete). The list is 32 tests
long but it doesn't apply to x86. In theory we could prevent LTP from
running all tests that it marks 'skip', but would that help anything?

There are around 12 (maybe 13?) tests that fail because we're
runnining using NFS root filesystem. As Tom noted, this should be
fixed soon.
