This patch improves the clarity and grammar of output messages in the acct() selftest. Minor changes were made to user-facing strings and comments to make them easier to understand and more consistent with the kselftest style.
Changes include: - Fixing grammar in printed messages and comments. - Rewording error and success outputs for clarity and professionalism. - Making the "root check" message more direct.
These updates improve readability without affecting test logic or behavior.
