Although using "comm" requires CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME=y doesn't it?

Which is probably fine, but should be mentioned.

And I guess for completeness you could add:

diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/lkdtm/config 
b/tools/testing/selftests/lkdtm/config
index d874990e442b..ae88bfb163ff 100644
--- a/tools/testing/selftests/lkdtm/config
+++ b/tools/testing/selftests/lkdtm/config
@@ -1 +1,2 @@
 CONFIG_LKDTM=y
+CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME=y
