Okay, so this is purely to make tooling happy. Humans are smart enough to figure it out. What mechanism do we have in place to reliably prevent that from happening?

I'm afraid we have other such tests that report duplicate conditions. cow.c is likely another candidate (written by me ;) ). Probably, the affected tests should be converted to use kselftest_harness, where we just report the result for a single tests, and not the individual assertions. That would reduce the output of these tests drastically as well. So that is likely the way to clean this up properly and make tooling happy? -- Cheers, David / dhildenb
