Public bug reported:
fwts does not pick up messages such as following:
Oct 7 06:09:08 SL210t kernel: [ 0.018075] Your BIOS is broken and requested
that x2apic be disabled
Oct 7 06:09:08 SL210t kernel: [ 0.018076] This will leave your machine
vulnerable to irq-injection attacks
Oct 7 06:09:08 SL210t kernel: [ 0.018077] Use 'intremap=no_x2apic_optout'
to override BIOS request
..because these are just kernel warnings. It would be useful if fwts
klog test catches these too.
