Just adding to Peter's concern re: CONFIG_KASAN_KUNIT_TEST's dependency on 
CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS.

I'm having no luck running the KASan KUnit tests on arm64 with the following 
.kunitconfig on v6.6.0:

	CONFIG_KUNIT=y
	CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=n
	CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y
	CONFIG_KASAN=y
	CINFIG_KASAN_GENERIC=y
	CONFIG_KASAN_KUNIT_TEST=y

CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS, which CONFIG_KASAN_TEST relies on since the patch this 
thread is based on, isn't defined for arm64, AFAICT.

If I comment out the dependency on CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS, the tests appear to run, 
but KUnit isn't picking up the KASan output.

If I revert the patch, the above .kunitconfig appears to work fine on arm64 and 
the tests pass.

The above .kunitconfig works as intended on X86, no changes necessary. 

Am I missing something?

Many thanks,
Paul
