Tiezhu Yang aaa3e7fb81 selftests: kmod: use variable NAME in kmod_test_0001()
Patch series "kmod/umh: a few fixes".

Tiezhu Yang had sent out a patch set with a slew of kmod selftest fixes,
and one patch which modified kmod to return 254 when a module was not
found.  This opened up pandora's box about why that was being used for and
low and behold its because when UMH_WAIT_PROC is used we call a
kernel_wait4() call but have never unwrapped the error code.  The commit
log for that fix details the rationale for the approach taken.  I'd
appreciate some review on that, in particular nfs folks as it seems a case
was never really hit before.

This patch (of 5):

Use the variable NAME instead of "\000" directly in kmod_test_0001().

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 Restructured Text 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.
