In addition to KUnit, there is also a hardware-dependent IRQ test [1], that
is normally configured to be skipped. Unless we decide, during review, that
this kind of test is a Bad Idea.

This is likely independent of the KUnit selections, but I want us to just
be aware of it in case it influences things here.
