I would LOVE IT, if you could make this work! I have been trying to
figure out the best way to run all KUnit tests for a long time now.

That being said, I am a bit skeptical that this approach will be much
more successful than just using allyesconfig. Either way, there are
tests coming down the pipeline that are incompatible with each other
(the KASAN test and the KCSAN test will be incompatible). Even so,
tests like the apparmor test require a lot of non-default
configuration to compile. In the end, I am not sure how many tests we
will really be able to turn on this way.

Thoughts?
