This adds a new selftest module which can be used to test sysfs, which would otherwise require using an existing driver. This lets us muck with a template driver to test breaking things without affecting system behaviour or requiring the dependencies of a real device driver.
A series of 28 tests are added. Support for using two device types are supported:
- misc
- block
I suppose the selftests will run for more than 45 seconds (default kselftest timeout), so you probably also want to set timeout to something sensible in tools/testing/selftests/sysfs/settings file (0 would disable it).
Good catch, I'll use a default of 200, in practice for me this runs in much less than that, about 110 seconds, so 200 should be good wiggle room.
