One more thing I've forgotten to mention is that I want to add a
drmtest_assert macro on top of this which would replace allmost all usage
of assert in lib/drmtest and tests/*. With a few useful printks sprinkled
over drmtest_run_subtest and the drmtest_(skip|success|fail) functions we
could dump per-subtest results even when running with the legacy igt
automake testrunner. And with that we could also make sure that we run all
subtests and don't just fall over after the first one completed.

Cheers, Daniel
