Introduce a new 'V:' ("Verify") field to MAINTAINERS. The field accepts a name of a test suite which is required to be executed for each contribution to the subsystem.
Each referenced test suite is expected to be documented in the new Documentation/process/tests.rst file, which must have enough structure (documented inside) for the tools to make use of it. Apart from basic data, each test can refer to its "superset" - a test suite which this one is a part of. The expected use is to describe both a large test suite and its subsets, so the former would also be accepted, if a subsystem requires only a subset.
Introduce a new tag, 'Tested-with:', documented in the Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst file. The tag is expected to reference the documented test suites, similarly to the 'V:' field, and to certify that the submitter executed the test suite on the change, and that it passed.
Make scripts/checkpatch.pl ensure any added V: fields reference documented test suites only, and output a warning if a change to a subsystem doesn't certify the required test suites were executed, if any.
If the test suite description includes a "Command", then checkpatch.pl will output it as the one executing the suite. The command should run with only the kernel tree and the regular developer environment set up. But, at the same time, could simply output instructions for installing any extra dependencies (or pull some automatically). The idea is to get the developer into feedback loop quicker and easier, so they have something to run and iterate on, even if it involves installing some more stuff first. Therefore it's a good idea to add such wrappers to the kernel tree proper and refer to them from the tests.rst.
Extend scripts/get_maintainer.pl to support retrieving the V: fields, and scripts/parse-maintainers.pl to maintain their ordering.
