These are intentional...  The function name just changed so it's showing
up as a new bug.  I tried to add a big printk before this NULL
dereference but the printk message never showed up in dmesg...

+       kunit_info(test, "Testing that a NULL dereference causes a test failure\n");
+       kunit_info(test, "*** This will lead to an intentional stack trace ***\n");
