[PATCH 10/10 v2] ktest: Introduce FAILURE_LINE

From: Andrew Jones
Date: Fri Aug 12 2011 - 13:37:20 EST


This is the counterpart to SUCCESS_LINE. In some cases the boot will
succeed, but the console will display a message that means that the
boot test failed (such as a warning) while it boots. Use this option
to detect this and fail the test.
