Default default is n.

Perhaps in order?

Moreover, either init.h or module.h depending on the Kconfig (here
seems module.h is a right choice).

Perhaps collect statistics instead how it's done in many other tests?

caese ?

Simple {} would work.

A bit strange. Anyway, better to collect statistics and print it at
the end with corresponding return code.

Why?

It's not the same as in SPDX.
