This looks good to me. Though, as you mention, writing to freed memory
might not bode well for system stability after the test runs. I don't
think that needs to be a goal for these tests, though.

One thing which we're hoping to add to KUnit soon is support for
skipping tests: once that's in place, we can use it to mark tests as
explicitly skipped if they rely on the GENERIC mode. That'll take a
little while to get upstream though, so I wouldn't want to hold this
up for it.

Otherwise, from the KUnit side, this looks great.

I also tested it against the GENERIC mode on x86_64 (which is all I
have set up here at the moment), and nothing obviously had broken.
So:
