Sorry I'll fix it after following discussion. I use checkpatch with
spelling checker. I may have missed it for this patch.

Usually all TAP compliant tests print TAP 13 header at the start. These
tests when run from make run_tests have duplicate TAP 13 headers. I don't
think that this is the issue. Why do you think it is wrong?

For example, I've attached the logs of vDSO test suite. TAP header is
printed at the start. Then it is printed again at the start of the test if
it is TAP compliant e.g., vdso_test_abi and vdso_test_getrandom. These
tests are already TAP compliant. Other tests in this suite aren't TAP
compliant.
