Example command line:

qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -m 512 \
      -kernel arch/arm64/boot/Image -no-reboot -nographic \
      -snapshot \
      -bios /opt/buildbot/rootfs/arm64/../firmware/QEMU_EFI-aarch64.fd \
      -device virtio-blk-device,drive=d0 \
      -drive file=rootfs.ext2,if=none,id=d0,format=raw \
      -cpu cortex-a57 -serial stdio -monitor none -no-reboot \
      --append "kunit.stats_enabled=2 kunit.filter=speed>slow root=/dev/vda rootwait earlycon=pl011,0x9000000 console=ttyAMA0"

That works fine for me. Configuration is arm64 defconfig plus various
debug and kunit options. I built the efi image myself from sources.
The root file system is from buildroot with modified init script.
kunit tests are all built into the kernel and run during boot.

Sure, but having those tests fail all the time doesn't help either.
I'll re-enable the tests if / when they are skipped.
