For consumers wishing to run kunit on real hardware, it would be
ideal if the kunit framework and tests supported module-based builds.
This is an advantage as it reduces the test task to running
"modprobe mytests.ko", and CONFIG_KUNIT* options can be "always on"
(or rather "always m").  KUnit based tests will load the kunit module
as an implicit dependency.

as tests are added to kunit, it will become less feasible to execute
all built tests together.  By supporting modular tests we provide
a simple way to do selective execution on a running system; specifying

CONFIG_KUNIT=y
CONFIG_KUNIT_EXAMPLE_TEST=m

...means we can simply "insmod example-test.ko" to run the tests.

To achieve this we need to

o export the required symbols in kunit
o support a new way of declaring test suites.  Because a module cannot
  do multiple late_initcall()s, we provide a kunit_test_suites() macro
  to declare multiple suites within the same module at once.

Making kunit itself buildable as a module allows for "always-on"
kunit configuration; specifying CONFIG_KUNIT=m means the module
is built but only used when loaded.  Kunit test modules will load
kunit.ko as an implicit dependency, so simply running
"modprobe my-kunit-tests" will load the tests along with the kunit
module and run them.

Documentation should describe how to build kunit and tests as
modules.

This is strange. Why do you need ifdef?

Ah, this was an incorrect assumption on my part; I thought that
declaring a module license for built-in code might trigger a warning 
during build. I'll remove the #ifdef MODULE around licenses in v3 (v2 has 
already gone out as I mistakenly initially sent the wrong version of the 
patches). I've verified that removing it triggers no warnings.

Thanks to you and Randy for spotting this!

Alan
