Tiny nit, see below. Otherwise:

Tiny nit: I think this should be kunit_fail_assertion. I think
functions should be in the active tense, imperative mood since when
you call a function you are telling it to do something.

Also, do we need to worry about this getting confused with KUNIT_FAIL,
or KUNIT_FAIL_ASSERTION:

?
