SubjectRe: [PATCH] selftests/lkdtm: Use "comm" instead of "diff" for dmesg

Although using "comm" requires CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME=y doesn't it?

Which is probably fine, but should be mentioned.

And I guess for completeness you could add:

diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/lkdtm/config b/tools/testing/selftests/lkdtm/config
index d874990e442b..ae88bfb163ff 100644
--- a/tools/testing/selftests/lkdtm/config
+++ b/tools/testing/selftests/lkdtm/config
@@ -1 +1,2 @@
CONFIG_LKDTM=y
+CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME=y
