These scripts are copied into a test image and are not executed on any
machine running LAVA. Any scripts under lava_test_shell need to be
ignored for the purpose of the bashism check in Debian. If the test
image has issues, that can be fixed in the test image.

In addition, the lmp support is not in active use.

Not necessarily - these test images are not necessarily Debian or
Policy compliant. The default shell in the test image is determined by
the LAVA support and the shebang in the files is substituted
accordingly. The /bin/sh in the files in the source tree is no
indication of the actual shebang line used in the test image.
