Some LKDTM tests need to be run more than once (usually to setup and
then later trigger). Until now, the only case was the SOFT_LOCKUP test,
which wasn't useful to run in the bulk selftests. The coming stack canary
checking needs to run twice, so support this with a new test output prefix
"repeat".
