This patch looks odd.
Why do you run the ram test at all if the debug level is below DEBUG, if
none of the results are printed? Arguing with the parsable return code
sounds a bit outrageous and would lead to see the same error printed
twice with BIOS_DEBUG level.
Wouldn't the right fix be to explicitly only check those areas that pass
are not "expected to fail"?
If RAM does not check, it's an error, not a debug message, and it should
be printed as BIOS_ERR.
If auto.c tries to check areas that are not checkable (ie vga memory),
that's a bug in auto.c and should be fixed there.
