This happens on snow, which is (maybe) the only real board that
defines CONFIG_UNIT_TEST

test/py/tests/test_ut.py sssnow # ut bdinfo bdinfo_test_eth
Test: bdinfo_test_eth: bdinfo.c
Skipping: Console recording disabled
test/test-main.c:486, ut_run_test_live_flat(): 0 == ut_run_test(uts,
test, test->name): Expected 0x0 (0), got 0xfffffff5 (-11)
Test bdinfo_test_eth failed 1 times
Skipped: 1, Failures: 1
snow # F+u-boot-test-reset snow snow

For this particular mechanism (-EAGAIN returned by test_pre_run()) , I
think a better fix would be to squash the error in ut_run_test(), as
is done when -EAGAIN is returned in the body of the test. I'll update
that. I cannot see any other way this could happen, but we can always
deal with it later if it does.

Simon
