When CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=y, making CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y and CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_AUTO_SCAN=y, the below memory leak is detected.
If kunit_filter_suites() succeeds, not only copy but also filtered_suite and filtered_suite->test_cases should be freed.
So as Rae suggested, to avoid the suite set never be freed when KUNIT_ASSERT_EQ() fails and exits after kunit_filter_suites() succeeds, update kfree_at_end() func to free_suite_set_at_end() to use kunit_free_suite_set() to free them as kunit_module_exit() and kunit_run_all_tests() do it. As the second arg got of free_suite_set_at_end() is a local variable, copy it for free to avoid wild-memory-access. After applying this patch, the following memory leak is never detected.
