This is one possible approach. I wasn't sure what would be the most
useful. Would it be most useful to assert an error is reported on a
function or assert an error is reported at a specific address?

Good point! I think I was just unsure of where I should set this value
and what the default should be.

Good point! This is much more readable

Yes, this was just a stand-in. I was wondering if you might have a
suggestion for the best way to print this failure message? Alan
suggested reusing the KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ() macro so the error message
would look something like:
"Expected kasan_report_expected == kasan_report_found, but
kasan_report_expected == true
kasan_report_found == false"

What do you think of this?

Yeah, I think I just wanted to make it clear that this is only used
for KASAN, but I believe that was before we talked about extending
this.

I was not aware of in_task()... can you explain its importance to me?

Yeah, I think moving this to the KUnit files is best too. I would like
to keep kunit_set_failure a static function as well.
