These will majorly conflict with the KASAN-test KUnit rework, which I
don't know what the status is. AFAIK, these are not yet in -mm tree.

I think the KASAN-test KUnit rework has priority, as rebasing that
work on top of this patch is going to be difficult. So maybe these
test additions can be declared optional if there are conflicts coming,
and if that'll be the case you'll have to rebase and resend the test.
