Public bug reported:

== SRU Justification ==

Impact: We added DEP-8 tests to the kernel package when there was no
other testing. Today we do much more thorough regression testing
internally (RT is a superset of kernel ADT). Given that generally ADT is
already struggling to cope and we literally get no added value from
running the same tests in ADT and RT lets drop the tests from ADT. This
does not change the fact that the tests of other packages with relations
to the kernel get run in ADT for each new kernel (DKMS, snapd, systemd,
glibc, ...).

Fix: Delete debian/tests from the kernel source package.

Testcase: The kernel package stops showing as separate test run on ADT.
Other packages get still triggered for new kernel uploads.

Regression Potential: Possibly the missing test gets flagged on the
first modified upload and has to be accepted. Otherwise nothing should
hard rely on those tests to be run in ADT. And they still run for RT.
