Current test_verifier provides little feedback or argument validation, instead silently falling back to running all tests in case of user error or even expected use cases. Trying to do manual exploratory testing, switching between kernel versions (e.g. with varying tests), or working around problematic tests (e.g. kernel hangs/crashes) can be a frustrating experience.

Rework argument parsing to be more robust and strict, and provide basic help on errors. Clamp test ranges to valid values and add an option to list available built-in tests ("-l"). Default "test_verifier" behaviour (run all tests) is unchanged and backwards-compatible. Updated examples:

 $ test_verifier die die die     # previously ran all tests
 Usage: test_verifier -l | [-v|-vv] [<tst_lo> [<tst_hi>]]

 $ test_verifier 700 9999        # runs test subset from 700 to end

looks like you could use perhaps <linux/kernel.h> instead?
