When the filters arg = NULL, such as the call of kunit_filter_suites(&suite_set, "suite2", NULL, NULL, &err) in filter_suites_test() tese case in kunit, both filter_count and parsed_filters will not be initialized. So it's possible to enter kunit_filter_attr_tests(), and the use of uninitialized parsed_filters will cause below wild-memory-access.
