Please use 'print_skip', which appends ", skipping test" to keep the skip
messages consistent. Also, print_skip can't be disabled with -DQUIET like
pr_info.

kvm selftests generally asserts on failure with the nonunderscore
prefixed KVM ioctl wrapper functions, which is why you appear to
be forced to do this nasty dance. However, kvm selftests usually
always also offers an underscore prefixed version of the KVM ioctl
wrapper function too for cases like these. So we can just do

  if (_kvm_create_device(vm, KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V3, false, &gic_fd) != 0)
          return -1;


Thanks,
