[PATCH] selftests: sync: Skip the test if kernel support is not found

From: Michael Ellerman
Date: Wed May 31 2017 - 06:40:44 EST


The "Sync framework" test doesn't work if the kernel has no support,
obviously. Rather than reporting a failure, check for the kernel support
by looking for /sys/kernel/debug/sync/sw_sync, and if not found skip the
test.
