Do you need a patch for that in some documentation?

How about adding some comments to README.devel?

Sure - but it wont be sufficient IMO.
Best course of action is for the maintainers to remind people to run
tests.

Above, you said the tests were meant for bots.

BTW: We found out that Stephen's patches still break the latest -next.

ugh. I committed them after running tdc.sh and not seeing a change in
output. We'll need fixup patches then.

Clearly some work is needed on getting the test suite usable by a wider
audience. I am new to running those tests as well and probably had some
pilot errors running them.

I do wait for ACKs from tc folks, but can't wait forever. Right now
there is the 'skip_hw' and 'skip_sw' patch that Victor sent a Tested-by.
When I apply that v2 patch, I see errors in the tdc.sh output so my
mileage varies from Victor's. There is also the v5 of this set which I
have no applied yet; it could use some acks and tdc testing as well.
