[PATCH 1/2] selftests: Replace "Bail out" with "Error"
Posted by Muhammad Usama Anjum 1 year, 10 months ago
"Bail out! " is not descriptive. It rather should be: "Failed: " and
then that added prefix doesn't need to be added everywhere. Usually in
the logs, we are searching for "Failed" or "Error" instead of "Bail
out".
