With procfs v3.3.16, the sysctl command doesn't print the set key and
value on error. This change breaks livepatch selftest test-ftrace.sh,
that tests the interaction of sysctl ftrace_enabled:
Make it work with all sysctl versions using '-q' option.
Explicitly print the final status on success so that it can be verified
in the log. The error message is enough on failure.

Inspired by commit f131d9edc2 ("selftests/lkdtm: Don't clear dmesg
when running tests"), keep a reference dmesg copy when beginning each
test. This way check_result() can compare against the initial copy
rather than relying upon an empty log.

Since livepatching depends upon ftrace handlers to implement "patched"
code functionality, verify that the ftrace_enabled sysctl value
interacts with livepatch registration as expected. At the same time,
ensure that ftrace_enabled is set and part of the test environment
configuration that is saved and restored when running the selftests.
