Make KUnit trigger the new TAINT_TEST taint when any KUnit test is run.
Due to KUnit tests not being intended to run on production systems, and
potentially causing problems (or security issues like leaking kernel
addresses), the kernel's state should not be considered safe for
production use after KUnit tests are run.

This both marks KUnit modules as test modules using MODULE_INFO() and
manually taints the kernel when tests are run (which catches builtin
tests).

David, Brendan, Andrew,

Just confirming the status of these patches. I applied v4 1/3 and v4 3/4
to linux-kselftest kunit for 5.20-rc1.
I am seeing v5 and v6 now. Andrew applied v5 looks like. Would you like
me to drop the two I applied? Do we have to refresh with v6?

Just noting here that there'll be a merge conflict between this patch
(3/4) and some other patches lined up to go through the kunit tree:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-kselftest/patch/20220625050838.1618469-2-davidgow@xxxxxxxxxx/

Not sure how we want to handle that.


I can go drop the two patches and have Andrew carry the series through
mm tree.


Sorry spoke too soon. Yes there are others that might have conflicts as
Daniel pointed out:

thanks,
