selftests/gpio: gpio-sim.sh: BUG: test FAILED due to recent change in sh source

[Mirsad Todorovac]

Hi,

The gpio-sim.sh test appears to FAIL in a wrong way due to missing initialisation
of shell variables:

$ sudo gpio-sim.sh
.
.
.
4. Simulated GPIO chips are functional
4.1. Values can be read from sysfs
4.2. Bias settings work correctly
cat: /sys/devices/platform/gpio-sim.0/gpiochip18/sim_gpio0/value: No such file or directory
./gpio-sim.sh: line 393: test: =: unary operator expected
bias setting does not work
GPIO gpio-sim test FAIL
$

This patch fixed the issue:

diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/gpio/gpio-sim.sh b/tools/testing/selftests/gpio/gpio-sim.sh

... after which the test passed:

GPIO gpio-sim test PASS

Which I believe proves that the bug was in the script and not in the gpio-sim driver.
Or I am doing something very wrong, but I got the above error on AlmaLinux 8.7
on my Lenovo desktop box with the 6.2+ latest pull Linux kernel:

[marvin@pc-mtodorov linux_torvalds]$ uname -rms
