Commit
2964f6b816c2 ("selftests: Use ktap helpers for runner.sh") added a
number of bashisms and updated the interpreter specified for the script to
be /bin/bash to reflect this. Unfortunately this does not actually achieve
anything in production since the main way runner.sh is invoked is from the
top level run_kselftest.sh which sources it rather than running it as a
separate script and specifies the shell as /bin/sh. This means that on
systems where /bin/sh is not bash (such as Debian where /bin/sh defaults to
being dash) we see failures:
./run_kselftest.sh: 195: ./kselftest/runner.sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "}")
These bashisms come from this part of the change:
4. In runner.sh run_one(), get the return value and use ktap helpers for
all pass/fail reporting. This allows counting pass/fail numbers in the
main process.
which uses a bash array to track all the subtests being run. Convert this
to use a simple flat variable instead.
