Chatted offline with David about this.
He was thinking if we could instead drop the minimal version back to 3.6.

I think we can do so, see below.
Perhaps we should drop the import and then chain this patch on top of
that, specifying a minimum version of 3.6?

Checking out https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest.git/?h=kunit-fixes

The offending "annotations" import is related to type annotations.
Specifically https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0563/

So let's see how the two most popular typecheckers fare.

pytype is happy with or without import.
mypy has the same issues with or without the import.

$ mypy tools/testing/kunit/*.py
tools/testing/kunit/kunit_kernel.py:227: error: Item "_Loader" of
"Optional[_Loader]" has no attribute "exec_module"
tools/testing/kunit/kunit_kernel.py:227: error: Item "None" of
"Optional[_Loader]" has no attribute "exec_module"
tools/testing/kunit/kunit_kernel.py:228: error: Module has no
attribute "QEMU_ARCH"
tools/testing/kunit/kunit_kernel.py:229: error: Module has no
attribute "QEMU_ARCH"

So clearly it's not doing anything for them.

Taking a look over 87c9c1631788 ("kunit: tool: add support for QEMU")
next then...
I don't see anything that would warrant the import, so we should
probably drop it.

In that case, the minimum supported version should drop back down to 3.6.
We use enum.auto, which is from 3.6
https://docs.python.org/3/library/enum.html#enum.auto

We could consider stopping using that, and I think we might be then
3.5-compatible.
Maybe we have a chain of 3 patches then, drop the import, drop auto,
and then add in a >=3.5 version check?
