snprintf(path, sizeof(path), ..) is better.

Simply use SAFE_PREAD(). fd will be closed when test ends.

Why tst_brk() ? It's supposed to be tst_res(TFAIL, ..).

The CPPC sysfs interface also requires CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_LIB to be built.

There's also no runtest entry for this test, so it can't be run in the testing
suites by kirk.
