Why do you need two config symbols here? Isn't ARM_KPROBES_TEST_MODULE 
redundant?
When ARM_KPROBES_TEST_MODULE is configured for a stand-alone module,
rather than built-in, then

#ifdef CONFIG_ARM_KPROBES_TEST_MODULE

is false. I found other examples where people seemed to have gotten
around this by selecting a second config symbol and copied that. E.g.
FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST selects FTRACE_SELFTEST which is then used in #ifdef
statements.

Is there a better way? If not, I should explain this anyway in the
changelog.
