[PATCH] selftests: livepatch: Fix it to do root uid check and skip
From: Shuah Khan
Date: Thu Dec 12 2019 - 20:56:21 EST
livepatch test configures the system and debug environment to run
tests. Some of these actions fail without root access and test
dumps several permission denied messages before it exits.
Fix it to check root uid and exit with skip code instead.
