Several of the MM tests have a pattern of printing a description of the test to be run then reporting the actual TAP result using a generic string not connected to the specific test, often in a shared function used by many tests. The name reported typically varies depending on the specific result rather than the test too. This causes problems for tooling that works with test results, the names reported with the results are used to deduplicate tests and track them between runs so both duplicated names and changing names cause trouble for things like UIs and automated bisection.
As a first step towards matching these tests better with the expectations of kselftest provide helpers which record the test name as part of the initial print and then use that as part of reporting a result.
This is not added as a generic kselftest helper partly because the use of a variable to store the test name doesn't fit well with the header only implementation of kselftest.h and partly because it's not really an intended pattern. Ideally at some point the mm tests that use it will be updated to not need it.
