Instead of doing an LTP test, could you just write a script that could test
it in the kernel selftests?

See tools/testing/selftests/...

in the kernel repository.

Not exactly sure which directory it would go. Perhaps the "mounts"
directory?

If you create a tracefs one, it could go into the ftrace directory.
