This kselftest update for Linux 5.5-rc1 adds KUnit, a lightweight unit
testing and mocking framework for the Linux kernel from Brendan Higgins.
KUnit is not an end-to-end testing framework. It is currently supported
on UML and sub-systems can write unit tests and run them in UML env.
KUnit documentation is included in this update.
In addition, this Kunit update adds 3 new kunit tests:
- kunit test for proc sysctl from Iurii Zaikin
- kunit test for the 'list' doubly linked list from David Gow
- ext4 kunit test for decoding extended timestamps from Iurii Zaikin
In the future KUnit will be linked to Kselftest framework to provide
a way to trigger KUnit tests from user-space.
