I'm not a native speaker, but

with syntax similar to the shell test command. The oldest supported kernel
version for LTP is 3.0, therefore we don't need this if comparing with very old version
e.g. 2.6.8.

But is it really needed? Nobody will add these check nowadays.
Instead this I sent a patch to add this to doc/supported-kernel-libc-versions.txt
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ltp/patch/20221216094611.2924-2-pvorel@suse.cz/
(I also pinged few people + automated-testing@lists.yoctoproject.org in the
patchset to get some audience for minimal version - maybe we could raise higher.)

Updating example is obviously correct.
