Does this require the user to set up this kasan_data resource in each
KASAN test? Or can we set up the resource on the KUnit side whenever a
user writes a test that expects a KASAN failure? I've been playing
around with it and I can only seem to get it to work when I add the
resource within the test, but I could be missing something.
