To unify the return code of resctrl_tests with the return code of
selftest set, return KSFT_SKIP (4) if resctrl filessystem is not
supported or resctrl is not run as root.

Could you please elaborate how changing ksft_exit_fail_msg() to ksft_exit_skip() accomplishes the goal of unifying the return code? What is wrong with using ksft_exit_fail_msg()?
