[LTP] [PATCH] coredump01: Skip pipe core_pattern under SELinux enforcing

[Petr Vorel]

Hi Avinesh,

thanks for the fix, merged.

@Jan @Li @Michael FYI

Kind regards,
Petr

> SELinux in enforcing mode silently blocks the kernel's usermode-helper
> spawn for the piped core_pattern, so the helper never runs and the
> test reports FAIL.

> coredump01.c:126: TINFO: Testing pipe core_pattern
> coredump01.c:100: TFAIL: coredump01_helper did not report any core dump

> Skip with TCONF instead of failing.
