Is there a stub for test_genalloc() when its config option is not enabled?
I don't see it.

These TEST_ kconfig symbols should be in lib/Kconfig.debug, not lib/Kconfig.

This should depend on GENERIC_ALLOCATOR, not select it.
See TEST_PARMAN, TEST_BPF, TEST_FIRMWARE, TEST_SYSCTL, TEST_DEBUG_VIRTUAL
in lib/Kconfig.debug.
