[LTP] insmod01_sh test from commands test suite will make cve-2017-17053 test fail

Hello folks,

We found out that when running the LTP test suite directly (which uses
the "default" file in scenario_groups). The insmod01_sh will insert an
out-of-tree module and taints the kernel, and the following
cve-2017-17053 test in the cve test suite will check if the kernel is
tainted. Thus causing some false-positive in the test result.

Perhaps a workaround is to move the cve test suite to somewhere before
the commands test suite in the "default" scenario.

Thanks
