Hi Andrew,
Thank you for your time and pointing out the issue. The duplicate entry for int_pow_kunit in lib/math/Makefile and lib/math/tests/Makefile stems from my attempt to align this patch with another[1] I had authored in a series by David Gow that moves all lib/math/ KUnit tests to lib/math/tests/.
Since that series hasn’t landed yet, I’ll update this patch by reverting to the current mainline approach, keeping the object file assignment in lib/math/Makefile. This avoids assuming the approach in the David's patch series and prevents conflicts. Once both patches are merged, I'll create a follow-up patch to align everything properly.
I apologize for the confusion and back-and-forth on this patch. In reviewing your earlier feedback from v3 of this patch[2], I now realize what you were referring to regarding the conflict. At the time, I failed to fully understand the issue.
I appreciate your patience, and I’ll do my best to resolve this in a way that minimizes further disruption.
