This is an interesting point. I'm not naitive speaker. I just learned
from AI. It really matters what we define as 'postive'. I presume 'postive'
is we run selftest and got a failure report, that's postive, not thinking
as it's thp disabled kernel and a 'pass' is postive.

I'll add statement about 'postive' in v2 like "a test failure is
defiend as postive"
