Re: [PATCH v3] lib/tests: add KUnit tests for the priority sorted list (plist)

Hi Andrew,
Geert pointed out that the Reported-by/Closes/Suggested-by tags in the
plist KUnit patch do not belong there, and I agree - they describe the
history of earlier revisions rather than an upstream bug. I am dropping
them.
The copy in mm-nonmm-unstable currently carries them: do you prefer a v4
with the tags removed, or would you rather edit the patch in place? There
is no code change either way.
For the record on the TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS question: I measured both
configurations on next-20261027 and saw exactly what Eric described - with
the test as a module the three exports stay in Module.symvers and
__ksymtab_plist_* is present in vmlinux; built into the kernel they are
trimmed, which is harmless.
Thanks,
Yuehong
