Yep, it's correct. `module->init()` should run once before every test
case, reason being that the kunit_module serves as a test fixture in
which each test cases should be run completely independently of every
other. init and exit is supposed to allow code common to all test
cases to run since it is so common to have dependencies needed for a
test to be common to every test case.
Maybe it is confusing that I call it kunit_module? Maybe I should call
it kunit_fixture or something?

Like I said above, these aren't normal init functions. A
kunit_module->init() function should run once before each test case
and thus should reside in the same linker section as any other KUnit
test code.
