FYI, the above diff breaks build because kunit_skip() receives two arguments.
Yes, the upstreamed patch is broken.  But, it was not noticed because a patch
[1] silently fixing the issue has merged into the mainline together, as a part
of the same patch series.

My ported patch that just sent as a reply to this mail fixes this together.

[1] 80d725f96c44 ("mm/damon/tests/core-kunit: remove unused ctx in damon_test_split_regions_of()")
