This question is primarily directed at Shuah and Linus....

What's the current status of the kunit series now that Brendan has
moved it out of the top-level kunit directory as Linus has requested?

There doesn't appear to have been many comments or changes since since
September 23rd, and I was very much hoping they could land before
-rc2, since I've been hoping to add unit tests for ext4.

Is kunit likely to be able to be landed in Linus's tree during this
development cycle?

Many thanks!
