Gah, permissions are 0:

	module_param_named(filter_glob, filter_glob_param, charp, 0);

You can't even see what filters were set via sysfs:

	$ ls /sys/module/kunit/parameters/
	stats_enabled

So, once set, there's no way to change it.

I wonder why this isn't 0x644.

It sounds that, if we want to control it at runtime, we'll need to 
build with kunit as module, and unload/reload it every time if/when
we want to run IGT with a different filtering ruleset.
