Hello Masami,

With Alan Maguire's recent commit b730d668138c ("ftrace/selftest: make
unresolved cases cause failure if --fail-unresolved set") landed on
the tree.
I think this unresolved return value issue is all good here.

It is indeed a good question to brainstorm with about how to
distinguish a not enabled / enabled but not working feature.
I will fix the irqsoff_tracer.tc test here to make them consistent first.

Thank you for your feedback.
