Subject: [PATCH v3 01/29] selftests/resctrl: Convert perror() to ksft_perror() or ksft_print_msg()
Date:   Mon, 11 Dec 2023 14:17:58 +0200
Message-Id: <20231211121826.14392-2-ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>
In-Reply-To: <20231211121826.14392-1-ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>

The resctrl selftest code contains a number of perror() calls. Some of
them come with hash character and some don't. The kselftest framework
provides ksft_perror() that is compatible with test output formatting
so it should be used instead of adding custom hash signs.

Some perror() calls are too far away from anything that sets error.
For those call sites, ksft_print_msg() must be used instead.

Convert perror() to ksft_perror() or ksft_print_msg().

Other related changes:
- Remove hash signs
- Remove trailing stops & newlines from ksft_perror()
- Add terminating newlines for converted ksft_print_msg()
- Use consistent capitalization
