Subject: [PATCH 1/2] selftests: mm: ksm: Fix incorrect evaluation of parameter

A missing break in kms_tests leads to kselftest hang when the
parameter -s is used.
In current code flow because of missing break in -s, -t parses
args spilled from -s and as -t accepts only valid values as 0,1
so any arg in -s >1 or <0, gets in ksm_test failure

This went undetected since, before the addition of option -t,
the next case -M would immediately break out of the switch
statement but that is no longer the case

Add the missing break statement.

----Before----
./ksm_tests -H -s 100
Invalid merge type

----After----
./ksm_tests -H -s 100
