Yeah my understanding is that uml is the quickest way to spawn a new
kernel, which kunit needs to run. And I really do like that idea, because
having virtualization support in cloud CI systems (which use containers
themselves) is a bit a fun exercise. The less we rely on virtual machines
in containers for that, the better.

Hence why I really like the uml approach for kunit.
