Is this for in-kernel tests, or userspace tests?  If userspace, you
should follow the proper test reporting protocol the rest of the kernel
uses.  If in-kernel, it should follow the format that the in-kernel test
currently has to be consistent.  From what I could tell here, you aren't
following either, but I might be totally wrong.
