Basic idea of this series is now to use the kselftest_harness.h framework to get TAP output in the tests, so that it is easier for the user to see what is going on, and e.g. to be able to detect whether a certain test is part of the test binary or not (which is useful when tests get extended in the course of time).
Since most tests also need a vcpu, we introduce our own macros to define such tests, so we don't have to repeat this code all over the place.

OMG, you didn't tell me this allows sub-tests to run after a failed test! That alone is worth the conversion :-)
There's definitely a few enhancements we'll want to make, but this is more than good enough as a starting point.
Applied to kvm-x86 selftests, thanks!
