Bug #587
closedStrange changes in general regression test set

Description
3 'Unmatched' and 3 'No Makefile or Kbuild file' becomes 5 'Unmatched' and 1 'No Makefile or Kbuild file'.
I notice that there are such descriptions that lead to 'Unmatched':
- Driver have no kernel modules.
- Incorrect driver archive type.
I add corresponding patterns to the problems script. So soon (tomorrow) there won't be 'Unmatched' for the general test set for all tools (this was just for BCE indeed).
But we have to know why such problems have place. May be some fails of BCE, may be some problems in the test set (incorrect archives, packaging scripts, etc.).

This bug is related with the bug #584 since I can't see where a particular problem arises (in what driver).

- Category changed from 26 to Tests and QA
The category 'Regression testing' should be deleted. Sorry that I skipped 'LDV tests'.

I updated the general regression task file but we have to find out with what these problems are related (are these a real or artificial problems or may be there are bugs in BCE).

It's a BCE bug.
BCE was changed for work with em803 driver. (This driver includes a KERNEL_LOCATION define that is not overridden.)

1. '' -> 'Incorrect archive type'
Comes with ldv-online fixes. (It's a correct description for ldv-online users)
2. 'No Makefile or Kbuild file' -> 'No modules'
It is a new correct description.
Previously, Makefile's and Kbuild files were tested for the presence of "obj-m" declaration. 'No Makefile or Kbuild file' printed when driver Makefile or Kbuild not contains "obj-m". But this description is confusing to online users. In fact, the file exists, but the declaration "obj-m" is not there. For this reason "obj-m" test was removed from BCE and new correct message was printed.
3. '' -> 'No modules'
Driver has correct Kbuild with incorrect source file. Kernel compiled this driver with 'No modules' message.

So changes are intended and positive but what with sources? I think that Vadim can answer this question.

There is 63 build problems of total middle tests 305 launches (about 20%). Just 2 of them seems artificial ones. I think that we really need to update middle tests since 61 drivers aren't checked and just spend our time.

Sorry for incorrect issue. Of course this must be moved to the separate one!
