I have a prototype of async support for tests working. I'll apply it
on top of the next version Vincenzo posts and share the patch.

Vincenzo, when you post the next version, please make sure you rebase
on top of the mm tree version that includes "kasan: export HW_TAGS
symbols for KUnit tests" (linux-next/akpm doesn't yet have it).
