Documentation: kunit: Note that assertions should not be used in cleanup

As assertions abort the test cleanup process, they should be avoided
from within a suite's exit function, or from within resource 'free'
functions. Unlike with initialisation or main test execution, no further
cleanup will be performed after a failed assertion, potentially causing
a leak of resources.
