Subject: selftests: timers: Fix run_destructive_tests target to handle skipped tests

From: Shuah Khan <[email protected]>

commit df9c011c0a23cf1399c01f896cd359d932ab49b5 upstream.

When a test exits with skip exit code of 4, "make run_destructive_tests" halts testing. Fix run_destructive_tests target to handle error exit codes.
