Maybe I'm overthinking this, but wouldn't it make more sense to have a
kunit *prefix* to those functions? Any other function in the kernel
taking a kunit test pointer as a parameter starts with kunit (like
kunit_kzalloc), so it would make more sense to me that kunit-related clk
functions follow the same pattern.
