In the function 'tools/testing/selftests/breakpoints/run_test' within step_after_suspend_test.c, the ksft_print_msg function call incorrectly used '$s' as a format specifier. This commit corrects this typo to use the proper '%s' format specifier, ensuring the error message from waitpid() is correctly displayed.

The issue manifested as a compilation warning (too many arguments for format [-Wformat-extra-args]), potentially obscuring actual runtime errors and complicating debugging processes.

This fix enhances the clarity of error messages during test failures and ensures compliance with standard C format string conventions.
