I tested the patches on a machine that supports FRED. The results are as
expected:

FRED on  — no Fix   => FAIL
FRED off — no Fix   => PASS
FRED on  — with Fix => PASS
FRED off — with Fix => PASS

Tested-by: Sohil Mehta <sohil.mehta@intel.com>

Though, I haven't tested the 32-bit version of the selftest.
