So we do have some patches lying around that add support for resources
associated with a suite of tests that I can send out if anyone is
interested; nevertheless, I think it makes sense for KASAN to only
care about tests cases; you still get the KASAN report either way and
KUnit isn't really supposed to care what happens outside of KUnit.
