I was just thinking a couple of hours ago if anyone uses ktest.pl, and
if so, how come I haven't received any patches for it ;-)

Anyway, I'll take a look at this next week, and it may be a while
before it gets into the kernel, as I like to run updates for a few
weeks on my systems (as I use it to build all my kernels), before I
push it upstream.

Thanks!
