Yes it is.

There should not be a failure for Build/Install when Kernel is >=
2.6.22, when this syscall was introduced. May be we need to check out
why it failed to build/install.

The know failures are, out of 99 scenarios that Michael was testing,
roughly 33 of them were failing on 2.6.25. And Michael was working with
the syscall developer to get those fixes, and he himself gave some
fixes.

May be we need to investigate the script which checks whether it should
be built/installed/executed. If you find out something unusual in:

ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/utimensat/Makefile, and
ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/utimensat/utimensat_tests.sh,

please let me know.

Subrata
