Yes agree. We can exit with an error for lockdep issue instead of a warning.

The tests are passing but log shows lockdep warning 
(https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/vigneshraman/linux/-/jobs/62177711).

Moreover if the lockdep warning is emitted, lockdep will not continue to 
run and there is no need to check this warning for each tests.
So added the check at the end of the tests.

Yes it would fail and the pipeline will be red.

With this current patch, it will fail.
