I have to disagree on this, to be consistent with the other tests the
failure messages should include the test name, and putting the
ksft_test_result_fail("test name") in each branch as well as the error
message would just be wilful duplication.

I do think it's a pity C lacks mechanisms such that gotos are sometimes
necessary, but I can only right so many wrongs in this patch :)

I am trying to keep things consistent with what's gone before in this code,
and given page_size is being passed around I think the 'when in Rome'
principle applies equally to passing the fp around I think.

Ack on this one, will spin a v3 with this as otherwise we might miss test
failures here.

I'd rather we did fclose() to keep things clean, as who knows what
additional tests may be added later and to be pedantic about matching an
fopen() with an fclose().
