[PATCH] drivers: base: test: DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST should not select OF
From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Thu Aug 20 2026 - 11:43:54 EST
Enabling a (modular) test should not silently enable additional kernel
functionality, as that may increase the attack vector for a product.
Fix this by skipping the new test when OF support is disabled instead of
selecting OF support.
Note that when OF support is disabled, the compiler optimizes away the
then unused reference to of_fwnode_ops in of_node_init(), so linking
succeeds.
Fixes: 0e6f8ccd4618afdb ("device property: add test cases for fwnode_for_each_child_node()")
