Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) d8e77a0b63 lib/test_vmalloc.c: restrict default test mask to avoid test warnings
When the vmalloc test is built into the kernel, it runs automatically
during the boot.  The current-default "run_test_mask" includes all test
cases, including those which are designed to fail and which trigger kernel
warnings.

These kernel splats can be misinterpreted as actual kernel bugs, leading
to false alarms and unnecessary reports.

To address this, limit the default test mask to only the first few tests
which are expected to pass cleanly.  These tests are safe and should not
generate any warnings unless there is a real bug.

Users who wish to explicitly run specific test cases have to pass the
run_test_mask as a boot parameter or at module load time.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
