Okay, great!

That sounds good.

Unfortunately, I have not been able to replicate this issue and I
don't have a clue why these specific tests would fail with a different
configuration. I've tried running these tests on UML with KUnit
built-in with SLUB=y and SLAB=y, and I've done the same in x86_64. Let
me know if there's anything else that could help me debug this myself.
