Thanks!  I also recently sent a fix for this which recently made it
upstream:
7a2f6f61e8ee ("iio: test: fix missing MODULE_LICENSE for IIO_RESCALE=m")

I based this patch off of IIO_TEST_FORMAT, and also thought that Kunit
tests had to be built-in to work with tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py

Looking at the Documentation again, it seems I was (partially?) wrong,
kunit tests can be run as module, but manually.

I could give this a try and send a patch in the next few days.

Cheers,
Liam
