From: José Expósito <jose.exposito89@gmail.com>
Add a couple of Rust const functions and macros to allow to develop
KUnit tests without relying on generated C code:
- The `kunit_unsafe_test_suite!` Rust macro is similar to the
`kunit_test_suite` C macro. It requires a NULL-terminated array of
test cases (see below).
- The `kunit_case` Rust function is similar to the `KUNIT_CASE` C macro.
It generates as case from the name and function.
- The `kunit_case_null` Rust function generates a NULL test case, which
is to be used as delimiter in `kunit_test_suite!`.
While these functions and macros can be used on their own, a future
patch will introduce another macro to create KUnit tests using a
user-space like syntax.

Changes since v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230720-rustbind-v1-1-c80db349e3b5@google.com/
- Rebase on top of rust-next
- As a result, KUnit attributes are new set. These are hardcoded to the
defaults of "normal" speed and no module name.
- Split the kunit_case!() macro into two const functions, kunit_case()
and kunit_case_null() (for the NULL terminator).

This should probably say `name: &'static CStr` to require that the

I assume the name must be zero-terminated? If so, you probably need to
enforce that somehow, e.g. by failing if `name_u8` is longer than 255
bytes.

You don't actually need UnsafeCell here since it's already `static mut`.

If you change `KUNIT_TEST_SUITE` to not be an UnsafeCell, then you'll
want to do `core::ptr::addr_of_mut!(KUNIT_TEST_SUITE` instead.

Nice catch. I'm not sure how to nicely throw a compile time error in
this function, so I'm truncating it here and doing a compile error in
the macro in patch #2. This isn't ideal, but seems to work.

Yes, this seems to still be needed for the kunit_unsafe_test_suite!() macro.
