Description

Parallel-scale sometimes produces malformed results.yml files when running on autoetst. An example is https://maloo.whamcloud.com/test_sessions/d3b1917a-aa27-11e1-bd84-52540035b04c .It has 7 subtests msarked as pass, and then the beginning of an eighth test (test_iorfpp) which has nothing other than a name. Maloo presently just shows the passed tests but marks the whole test suite as FAIL.

I believe it's correct to mark the entire testsuite to fail when there is a missing status in a subtest (test_iorfpp).
As to why test_iorfpp's log was not there, I don't know. But the testsuite output show test_iorfpp started.

It seems that the previous iorssf passed but hit some sort of issue because autotest dump stacktrace at the end
Unfortunately, there was nothing in the console and the conman hasn't recorded any console since 4/15

Another similar failure instance:

https://maloo.whamcloud.com/test_sets/0d741d06-1413-11e2-b63d-52540035b04c

All the shown sub-tests are marked as "PASS", but the whole test is marked as "ABORT", without further logs, which is similar as LU-1401.
