As reported by kernel test robot:
	 https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/202601191546.Bvd74asP-lkp@intel.com/

Here, you also need to change the relative location of the modules:

	 # Import Python modules

	-LIB_DIR = "../tools/lib/python"
	+LIB_DIR = "../lib/python"
	 SRC_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

	 sys.path.insert(0, os.path.join(SRC_DIR, LIB_DIR))

Thanks,
Mauro
