I had to re-read __report_bug() more carefully, but yes, this works -- it's basically leaving early, like "once" does.
This looks like a reasonable approach!
Something very similar to this is checking that a warning happens. i.e. you talk about drm selftests checking function return values, but I've got a bunch of tests (LKDTM) that live outside of KUnit because I haven't had a clean way to check for specific warnings/bugs. I feel like future changes built on top of this series could add counters or something that KUnit could examine. E.g. I did this manually for some fortify tests:
