Thanks. This looks like a race condition where the KUnit test kthread
can terminate before we wait on it.
Mickaël, does this seem like a correct fix to you?

Subject: [PATCH] kunit: Fix race condition in try-catch completion
KUnit's try-catch infrastructure now uses vfork_done, which is always
set to a valid completion when a kthread is crated, but which is set to
NULL once the thread terminates. This creates a race condition, where
the kthread exits before we can wait on it.
Keep a copy of vfork_done, which is taken before we wake_up_process()
and so valid, and wait on that instead.
Fixes: 4de2a8e4cca4 ("kunit: Handle test faults")
