No, I wasn't asking for that, it's just that the 'tests' array looks
like we're going to add more and more here (like we do in
kvm-unit-tests). If it's not the case you can probably simplify the code
by executing these three checks consequently without defining any
'sub-test' stuctures (like we do for other selftests). But I don't have
a strong opinion on this so we can keep things the way they are.
