[RFC] mm: Add KUNIT test for ptval_bytes_to_hex_str()

From: Anshuman Khandual

Date: Tue Sep 29 2026 - 08:07:08 EST


Add KUnit tests for ptval_bytes_to_hex_str() to verify conversion of 32-bit
64-bit, and 128-bit (when supported) page table entry values into printable
hexadecimal strings.

Add a new PTVAL_HEX_STR_KUNIT_TEST option to enable the tests.
