Yeah, this is "Managed Devices". I'll send out a follow-up patch to
the documentation once this has landed so we don't conflict.

I don't think there's been any specific discussion around making sure
KUnit lives in one module: this is just the first patch which would
make CONFIG_KUNIT build several separate ones.
Personally, I'd prefer to have the CONFIG_KUNIT option only build one
module itself, and otherwise keep the corresponding code in lib/kunit,
just so it's clearer what side effects enabling / disabling it has.

But ultimately, this really is just another side effect of the
discussion below about whether this is integrated as "part of KUnit",
in which case it can live in lib/kunit and be under CONFIG_KUNIT, or
if it's a part of of, in which case this is fine (though I'd rather it
be behind a CONFIG_OF_KUNIT_HELPERS or similar, personally).

Yeah, it's about what subsystem is maintaining the code, which impacts
a bit of the naming, and depends a bit on the intended use-case.

If these helpers are intended to test a particular subsystem, and are
of no use outside it, it seems clear that they should be a part of
that subsystem. For instance, the drm_kunit_helpers.
If they're exposing kunit-specific wrappers around core APIs, it makes
sense for them to be a part of KUnit. (The managed devices stuff, for
instance, as the device model is used by pretty much everything. It
also requires a KUnit-managed struct kunit_bus, which is hooked into
KUnit at a lower level, so needs to be a part of kunit.)

It gets more complicated for cases like of, where the helpers are both
used for testing of itself, and for testing drivers which rely on it.
So I think it could go either way. My gut instinct is that
platform_device is generic enough to be a part of KUnit (to match the
existing managed device stuff). For of_overlay, I could go either way,
and just leaned to having it be part of KUnit as that's a bit more
common, and it matches, e.g., the headers and documentation being
under include/kunit and dev-tools/kunit respectively.

Yeah, my feeling here is that if we're going to declare functions
which interact with of_overlay, we should have the 'skip' fallbacks
occur for either both CONFIG_OF and CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY here, or neither
(and require the test use its own #include guards). Having CONFIG_OF
checked here, and CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY checked elsewhere seems confusing
to me.
