Sorry, I do have somewhat of a bikeshed suggestion:

I agree that internal is confusing. But testing reminds me of
updates-testing, so I find -testing this somewhat confusing too.

Usually packaged test programs are called just tests, so maybe we can
go with: "kernel-modules-tests" or "kernel-modules-selftests" ?
