[LTP] [PATCH v1] tst_taint: Print readable error message instead of numerical code

[Kushal Chand]

Hi Petr,

I am really sorry I forgot to mention the link to issue on LTP for which I have submitted the patch. 

Can you please check https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/issues/776 if you have not already? 


I just followed what the issue points out. 

If not I will follow what you have mentioned if given more references to tst_strerrno()

Kernel can be tainted before testing with different flags than D. 
 
If you don't like the number, how about create function to map taint flag to 
char? i.e. similarly to tst_strerrno()? 
 
Kind regards, 
Petr
