[PATCH] Documentation: kunit: Modular tests should not depend on KUNIT=y

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Tue May 02 2023 - 06:06:52 EST


When the documentation was updated for modular tests, the dependency on
"KUNIT=y" was forgotten to be updated, now encouraging people to create
tests that cannot be enabled when the KUNIT framework itself is modular.
Fix this by changing the dependency to "KUNIT".

Document when it is appropriate (and required) to depend on "KUNIT=y".
