Ack.
So concretely, so then a final result like this?

$ cat kernel/kcsan/.kunitconfig
# Note that the KCSAN tests need to run on an SMP setup.
# Under kunit_tool, this can be done by using the x86_64-smp
# qemu-based architecture:
# ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=kernel/kcsan
--arch=x86_64 --qemu_args='-smp 8'

CONFIG_KUNIT=y

CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y

CONFIG_KCSAN=y
CONFIG_KCSAN_KUNIT_TEST=y

# Need some level of concurrency to test a concurrency sanitizer.
CONFIG_SMP=y

# This prevents the test from timing out on many setups. Feel free to remove
# (or alter) this, in conjunction with setting a different test timeout with,
# for example, the --timeout kunit_tool option.
CONFIG_KCSAN_REPORT_ONCE_IN_MS=100
