Subject: lib: kunit_iov_iter: improve error detection
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 22:49:04 +0100
In the kunit_iov_iter test prevent the kernel buffer from being a single
physically contiguous region.
Additionally, make sure that the test pattern written to a page in the
buffer depends on the offset of the page within the buffer.
