This whole thing looks broken, this is not how the tst_kvercmp2() is
supposed to work. The generic kernel version is supposed to be passed in
the first parameters and the kvers overrides that option.

So this should be something like:

	if (tst_kvercmp2(4, 4, 27, kvers) < 0)
		tc->exp_err = EACCESS;
	else
		tc->exp_err = EPERM;


And in a case that the distro matches to UBUNTU the kernel version is
compared against the "4.4.0-48.69" instead of the generic one.
