<br>
SRU Justification:<br>
<br>
[Impact]<br>
<br>
* This test can fail selftest on various test hosts in our testing<br>
infrastructure forcing us to keep hinting releases. This leads to<br>
maintenance burden for a test that is unreliable as it depends on the<br>
context of the running host.<br>
<br>
[Fix]<br>
<br>
* Force-pass the test included by upstream in<br>
0b63accf87225b5eb7e52814c374cf02d733d4bb. We have chosen to keep this<br>
test but to force its result unconditionally successful as opposed to<br>
reverting the aforementioned commit because:<br>
1. it keeps running the test with results and data that we can use in<br>
the future for any "smarter" way to deal with it - eg. statistical<br>
approach<br>
2. it minimizes the maintenance burden of this patch kept in our<br>
kernel trees<br>
<br>
[Test Plan]<br>
<br>
* It was tested in clean VMs.<br>
<br>
[Where problems could occur]<br>
<br>
* No regression expected and the scope is in this specific selftest.<br>
<br>
v2:<br>
* fix Buglink reference<br>
