The variable RET keeps track of whether the test under execution has so far failed or not. Currently it works in binary fashion: zero means everything is fine, non-zero means something failed. log_test() then uses the value to given a human-readable message. In order to allow log_test() to report skips and xfails, the semantics of RET need to be more fine-grained. Therefore have RET value be one of kselftest framework constants: $ksft_fail, $ksft_xfail, etc. The current logic in check_err() is such that first non-zero value of RET trumps all those that follow. But that is not right when RET has more fine-grained value semantics. Different outcomes have different weights. The results of PASS and XFAIL are mostly the same: they both communicate a test that did not go wrong. SKIP communicates lack of tooling, which the user should go and try to fix, and as such should not be overridden by the passes. So far, the higher-numbered statuses can be considered weightier. But FAIL should be the weightiest. Add a helper, ksft_status_merge(), which merges two statuses in a way that respects the above conditions. Express it in a generic manner, because exit status merge is subtly different, and we want to reuse the same logic. Use the new helper when setting RET in check_err(). Re-express check_fail() in terms of check_err() to avoid duplication.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
