Please do not invent relationships. Please replace the "4 - level" with
specific index used that depends on particular cache. The cache level
may not even be needed, just use the resource to determine the correct
index.

Can a message be displayed to support the debugging this test failure?

I assume this test failure relies on the error message from get_bit_mask()
that is called via get_full_cbm()?

How will user know what failed? I am seeing this single test exercise a few scenarios
and it is not obvious to me if the issue will be clear if this test,
noncont_cat_run_test(), fails.

Can these messages be made more specific with a "write" changed to "write of
non-contiguous CBM"

Please return negative on error. Ilpo just did a big cleanup to address this.
