Hi Baurzhan,

Just had a look at that series. Seems like we backport the necessary
patches for the particular kernel version.
This might be hard here, since the changes might me more.

The original intention to have this package as a separate recipe is to
provide means to use the latest kernel
kselftest testcases. Those seem to be more mature than one available
in lower kernel versions like 4.19.

The changes might be too much to backport making the approach more complicated.

In our usecase we are using the cip kernel, and if someone feels like
some testcases needs to be backported,
it needs to be done in the cip-kernel project and not it ISAR. But
there is no strong requirement from the users
for that, they are just okay with using the version that is available
in the latest kernel. This recipe just makes them
achieve that.

Thanks,
Vijai Kumar K
