The tb_test_credit_alloc_all() function had a huge number of
KUNIT_ASSERT() statements, all of which (though the magic of many many
layers of inscrutable macros) ended up allocating and initializing
various test assertion structures on the stack.
Don't do that. The kernel stack isn't infinite, and we have compiler
warnings (now errors) for the case where a stack frame grows too large.
Like it did here, by not an inconsiderable margin:
drivers/thunderbolt/test.c: In function ‘tb_test_credit_alloc_all’:
drivers/thunderbolt/test.c:2367:1: error: the frame size of 4500 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
2367 | }
| ^
Solve this similarly to the lib/test_scanf case: split out the tests
into several smaller functions, each just testing one particular tunnel
credit allocation.
This makes the i386 allyesconfig build work for me again.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
