I'm not very familiar with the aio testcases, but if they are set to
UNSUPPORTED then its possible that those specific testcases are not
meant to be used any more (eg due to spec changes, or were previously
found to be wrong) and have been left in the suite to preserve the
numbering.

The M versions are the autogenerated macro versions of the tests and
if they're reporting "Not In Use" its because the interfaces being
tested aren't macros.

I've seen this error as well but I don't know what causes it.
