Which is another reason not to > accept patches with coding style issues. I find that 73% of all stats are made up. What actually happened was testmgr.h was being #ifdef'ed out so despite the fact I saw "testmgr.o" on the build process it wasn't actually doing anything. Not blaming anyone here .. just missed a build option.

I actually did resubmit this morning with most of the checkpatch issues fixed.

The only reason I worked on it though is that there were build errors. That way I can justify it to my boss. Seriously, no spaces on the trailing edge of multi line comments? :-/ Anyways, I did re-submit. I still have no idea how testmgr works but hopefully someone can pick it up from there.
