I am supportive of adding the PCI dependency as a default for UML; I
agree that there is a common desire to use PCI for tests and enabling
it on UML is wonky.

One additional note: It looks like this patch breaks kunit_tool:
https://linux-review.googlesource.com/c/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux/+/21871

The python error in the log seems legitimate:
https://storage.googleapis.com/oss-prow/pr-logs/pull/linux-review.googlesource.com_linux_kernel_git_torvalds_linux/21871/linux-kernel-mailing-list-presubmit/1539456886976286720/build-log.txt

This line in particular:

AttributeError: 'LinuxSourceTreeOperationsUml' object has no attribute
'make_arch_qemuconfig'
