Nice, it's neat to see --kunitconfig being useful for having
one-liners for running tests.

Anecdotally, I hear from davidgow@xxxxxxxxxx that using gdb and UML
together isn't the nicest experience because of all the SIGSEGV flying
around when emulating paging.
So I'm a bit doubtful about this particular statement, but if you have
tried it out and it works well, then that's good too.

I just think the primary benefit of UML is faster compilation and it
being somewhat lighter than bringing up a VM.

Is the suggestion that all WARN's fail the current KUnit test?
I don't think we can do that.

Some KUnit tests will explicitly want to trigger error paths, so we
could have a lot of false positives.

An alternative is that we can apply the 1195505 to the code paths
we're interested in, e.g.

#include <kunit/test-bug.h>
if (bad_thing()) {
  kunit_fail_current_test("bad_thing happened");
}


I don't have the context to know how cumbersome this would be for the
DRM tests though.
If the answer is we want to catch any and all warnings, then we'd
perhaps want to add something to the tests themselves. And maybe we
should implement that as a KUnit library helper function so that other
tests can use it as well.

Ditto from the above, I think we'd wrongly mark some tests as failed
for intentional warnings.

I see these take 17-18s to exec the tests in the example snippets.
FYI, if you're not already trying this on top of 5.16, there's recent
changes to make the parsed output more fully realtime as well.
So hopefully that should increase the usability of these tests a bit further.

I only mention that since I wasn't able to apply this series without
conflicts on top of v5.16.
