kunit: allow kunit tests to be loaded as a module
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 do the following:
o export the required symbols in kunit
o string-stream tests utilize non-exported symbols so for now we skip
building them when CONFIG_KUNIT_TEST=m.
o drivers/base/power/qos-test.c contains a few unexported interface
references, namely freq_qos_read_value() and freq_constraints_init().
Both of these could be potentially defined as static inline functions
in include/linux/pm_qos.h, but for now we simply avoid supporting
module build for that test suite.
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.
o some test module names would have been too general ("test-test"
and "example-test" for kunit tests, "inode-test" for ext4 tests);
rename these as appropriate ("kunit-test", "kunit-example-test"
and "ext4-inode-test" respectively).
Also define kunit_test_suite() via kunit_test_suites()
as callers in other trees may need the old definition.
