  ubuntu_kernel_selftest

Bug description:
  == Justification ==
  The run_afpackettests will be marked as passed regardless the return
  value of those sub-tests in the script:
      --------------------
      running psock_tpacket test
      --------------------
      [FAIL]
      selftests: run_afpackettests [PASS]

  Fix this by changing the return value for each tests.

  == Fix ==
  * 8c03557 (selftests/net: correct the return value for run_afpackettests)

  This patch has alreay landed on newer releases and D with stable
  updates.
  For X and B this can be backported with the same logic.

  == Test ==
  Tested on a Xenial KVM with this patch applied on these two trees, when
  the test failed the return value will be 1 instead of 0 as expected.

  == Regression Potential ==
  * Low, it's just reflecting the real test return value. We may see this
  test failing on some kernels but it's good as it's reporting a real bug.

  
  == Original Bug Report ==
  The run_afpackettests will be marked as passed regardless the return
  value of those sub-tests in the script:
      --------------------
      running psock_tpacket test
      --------------------
      [FAIL]
      selftests: run_afpackettests [PASS]

  Fix this by changing the return value for each tests.

  Patch sent to upstream.
