I guess that we can filter out test_variants for now, I do not think
that it will be useful for the metadata that much.

Well either we teach the C parser about variables, or we move all the
definitions inline. I would just move them since that's easier to do.

That's a bug in the perl that produces the asciidoc, it's parsed just
fine in the json:

  "ioctl01": {
   "needs_root": "1",
   "needs_tmpdir": "1",
   "options": [
     [
      "D:",
      "device",
      "-D <tty device> : for example, /dev/tty[0-9]"
     ]
    ],
   "fname": "testcases/kernel/syscalls/ioctl/ioctl01.c"
  },

Indeed, that should be done.
