Yeah, there aren't any other tests which set up a "kasan_status"
resource to expect specific failures, but we still want the fallback
call to kunit_set_failure() so that any test which causes a KASAN
report will fail:

Ah, sorry -- I'd seen these go past, and totally forgot about them! I
think all we really want to keep is the ability to fail tests if a
KASAN report occurs. The tricky bit is then disabling that for the
KASAN tests, so that they can have "expected" failures.
