In the install section of the main Makefile of kselftests, the echo command is used with -n flag, which disables the printing of new line due to which the output contains "\n" chars as follows:
Emit Tests for alsa\nSkipping non-existent dir: arm64 Emit Tests for breakpoints\nEmit Tests for capabilities\n
This patch fixes the above bug by using the -e flag.
