My concerns were basically that: 1. Having a distinction between a more tutorialised ("here's how to run tests via kunit_tool") and reference-y ("a list of every option kunit_tool has") pages makes sense. Then again, these pages were close to identical in practice, so it's a theoretical objection at best. 2. There may be some links or references to the kunit_tool page (from outside the kernel documentation) which will break. But, I'm not aware of any, so they're certainly not common. Let's move forward with this.
