Unfortunately, that's probably not going to happen anytime soon.  I am overloaded
with KVM/kernel reviews as it is, so I don't expect to have cycles for KUT reviews
in the near future.

And for PMU tests in particular, I really want to get selftests to the point where
the PMU selftests are a superset of the PMU KUT tests so that we can drop the KUT
versions.  In short, reviewing PMU KUT changes is very far down my todo list.
