Public bug reported:

[impact]

the 'storage' autopkgtest requires the 'scsi_debug' module, and if it
can't load it (and it's not built-in), the test fails.  On some custom
kernels, this module isn't built, so the test always fails when doing a
reverse-dep autopkgtest using such a kernel.

As it doesn't make sense for the custom kernels to build the scsi_debug
module for these kernels just so the systemd autopkgtest can pass, there
should be some kind of check in the systemd 'storage' test for a non-
standard kernel (that doesn't include the scsi_debug module) and skip
the test in that case.

[test case]

run the 'storage' autopkgtest with a kernel that doesn't provide the
scsi_debug module, or check the autopkgtest.u.c history.

[regression potential]

test case skipping only, so very low if any regression potential
