I'm nervous about this happening before two key pieces of the kernel
setup, which might lead to weird timing-sensitive bugs or false
positives:
	async_synchronize_full()
	mark_readonly()

Now, I realize kunit tests _should_ be self-contained, but this seems
like a possible robustness problem. Is there any reason this can't be
moved after rcu_end_inkernel_boot() in kernel_init() instead?
