Some unit tests intentionally trigger warning backtraces by passing bad parameters to kernel API functions. Such unit tests typically check the return value from such calls, not the existence of the warning backtrace.

Thanks for picking this series back up! I honestly thought this had already landed. :)

With CONFIG_KUNIT enabled, image size increase with this series applied is approximately 1%. The image size increase (and with it the functionality introduced by this series) can be avoided by disabling CONFIG_KUNIT_SUPPRESS_BACKTRACE.

Yeah, as with my prior review, I'm a fan of this. It makes a bunch of my very noisy tests much easier to deal with.
