Sometimes a test kernel will crash or hang on reboot (this is even more
apparent when testing a config without CGROUPS on a box running
systemd). When this happens, on the next iteration of installing a
kernel, ktest will fail when it tries to install.

Have ktest do a check to see if the target can be connected to via ssh
before it tries to install. If it can't connect, then reboot again.
This time the reboot will fail because it can't connect and will force a
power cycle.

<title>ktest: Fix breakage from change of oldnoconfig to olddefconfig</title>

Commit fb16d891 "kconfig: replace 'oldnoconfig' with 'olddefconfig', and
keep the old name", changed ktest's default config update from
oldnoconfig to olddefconfig without adding oldnoconfig as a backup.
The make oldnoconfig works much better than its backup of:
   yes '' | make oldconfig

But due to this change, and the fact that ktest is used to build lots of
older kernels (and for bisects), it forgoes the oldnoconfig completely.

<title>ktest: Add native support for syslinux boot loader</title>

I installed Fedora 17 which no longer supports grub v1. I worked
with grub2 for a while, but there's so many issues with it and automated
rebooting, that I decided to switch to syslinux. Instead of using
the REBOOT_SCRIPT and add customized changes to get syslinux booted,
I thought it better to make ktest aware of syslinux and add options
to simplify the use of syslinux on a target test box.

Before rebooting the target, run the sync command, as it seems that
either Grub2 or systemd gets screwed up if you update to reboot a kernel
once and do a reboot without doing a sync.

As only grub or 'script' is supported for rebooting to a new kernel,
and Fedora 17 has dropped support for grub, I decided to add grub2
support as well (I also plan on adding syslinux/extlinux support too).

The options GRUB_FILE and GRUB_REBOOT were added to allow the user
to specify where to find the grub.cfg and what tool to use to reboot
into the next kernel respectively.

<title>ktest: Fix ktest confusion with CONFIG_MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA</title>

In order to decide if ktest should bother installing modules on the
target box, it checks if the config file has CONFIG_MODULES=y. But it
also checks if the '=y' part exists. It only will install modules if the
config exists and is set with '=y'. But as the regex that was used
tests:

  /^CONFIG_MODULES(=y)?/

this will also match:

  CONFIG_MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA

as the '=y' part was optional and it did not test the rest of the line.
When this happens, ktest will stop checking the rest of the configs but
it will also think that no modules are needed to be installed. What it
should do is only jump out of the loop if it actually found a
CONFIG_MODULES that is set to true.

Otherwise, ktest wont install the necessary modules needed for proper
booting of the test target.
