Thanks!

I think there was a reason we wanted it to "depends on TRACEPOINTS".
If it were to select it, then if you do a CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=y,
and also have KFENCE on, you'll always select tracepoints. In certain
situations this may not be wanted. If we didn't have
CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS, then certainly, auto-selecting TRACEPOINTS
would be ok.

If you can live with that, we can of course switch it to do "select
TRACEPOINTS".

On a whole I err on the side of fewer auto-selected Kconfig options.

Thanks,
-- Marco
