KUnit tests run in a kthread, with the current->kunit_test pointer set to the test's context. This allows the kunit_get_current_test() and kunit_fail_current_test() macros to work. Normally, this pointer is still valid during test shutdown (i.e., the suite->exit function, and any resource cleanup). However, if the test has exited early (e.g., due to a failed assertion), the cleanup is done in the parent KUnit thread, which does not have an active context.
Instead, in the event test terminates early, run the test exit and cleanup from a new 'cleanup' kthread, which sets current->kunit_test, and better isolates the rest of KUnit from issues which arise in test cleanup.
If a test cleanup function itself aborts (e.g., due to an assertion failing), there will be no further attempts to clean up: an error will be logged and the test failed. For example: # example_simple_test: test aborted during cleanup. continuing without cleaning up
This should also make it easier to get access to the KUnit context, particularly from within resource cleanup functions, which may, for example, need access to data in test->priv.

This is an updated version of / replacement for "kunit: Set the current KUnit context when cleaning up", which instead creates a new kthread for cleanup tasks if the original test kthread is aborted. This protects us from failed assertions during cleanup, if the test exited early.
Changes since v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230421040218.2156548-1-davidgow@google.com/ - Get rid of a unused 'suite' variable (kernel test robot) - Add Benjamin and Maxime's Reviewed-by tags.
Changes since v2: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20230419085426.1671703-1-davidgow@go... - Always run cleanup in its own kthread - Therefore, never attempt to re-run it if it exits - Thanks, Benjamin.
Changes since v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20230415091401.681395-1-davidgow@goo... - Move cleanup execution to another kthread - (Thanks, Benjamin, for pointing out the assertion issues)
