I think inverting the Makefile makes some sense here, even if it leads
to some code-duplication #define ugliness. Unfortunately, there just
doesn't seem to be a "clean" way of mocking out functions which is
also safe (particularly for something like copy_to_user(), which might
be running in a different thread concurrently with a test) and
performant. If there is a way to refactor the code to avoid the need
for mocking, that's always nice, but can lead to a lot of extraneous
exported functions / interfaces and other code churn.

The KUnit style guide actually never referred to TAP in its example
Kconfig entry, though a number of existing tests did:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/dev-tools/kunit/style.html#test-kconfig-entries

I don't think the actual text recommended in the guide is a problem:
it basically just points to the KUnit documentation, but I can send a
patch to soften the wording from "you MUST describe KUnit in the help
text" (or remove it entirely) if people really don't like it.
