Subject: [PATCH] kunit: tool: undo type subscripts for subprocess.Popen

Writing `subprocess.Popen[str]` requires python 3.9+.
kunit.py has an assertion that the python version is 3.7+, so we should
try to stay backwards compatible.

This conflicts a bit with commit 1da2e6220e11 ("kunit: tool: fix
pre-existing `mypy --strict` errors and update run_checks.py"), since
mypy complains like so
> kunit_kernel.py:95: error: Missing type parameters for generic type "Popen" [type-arg]

Note: `mypy --strict --python-version 3.7` does not work.

We could annotate each file with comments like
`# mypy: disable-error-code="type-arg"
but then we might still get nudged to break back-compat in other files.

This patch adds a `mypy.ini` file since it seems like the only way to
disable specific error codes for all our files.

Note: run_checks.py doesn't need to specify `--config_file mypy.ini`,
but I think being explicit is better, particularly since most kernel
devs won't be familiar with how mypy works.

Fixes: 695e26030858 ("kunit: tool: add subscripts for type annotations where appropriate")

Looks like this patch is still not merged in the mainline. May I ask the ETA,
or any concern if you have?

We've got this queued for 6.5 in the kselftest/kunit tree[1], so it
should land during the merge window. But I'll look into getting it
applied as a fix for 6.4, beforehand.

Thank you for the kind answer, Gow! I was thinking this would be treated as a
fix, and hence merged into the mainline before next merge window. I'm actually
getting my personal test suite failures due to absence of this fix. It's not a
critical problem, but it would definitely better for me if this could be merged
into the mainline as early as possible.

This patch is now in the mainline (e30f65c4b3d671115bf2a9d9ef142285387f2aff).
However, this fix is not in 6.4.y yet, so the original issue is reproducible on
6.4.y. Could you please add this to 6.4.y? I confirmed the mainline commit
can cleanly applied on latest 6.1.y tree, and it fixes the issue.

As this was not specifically tagged with a "cc: stable..." marking, that
is why it was not picked up automatically. Also, we do not normally add
patches to any stable releases until it is in a released kernel from
Linus (i.e. a -rc release), unless you have a specific reason for it to
be merged earlier.

Should this be merged "now" into the stable trees and not wait for
6.5-rc1?

I understand that. I thought this would be merged into the mainline before
v6.4 release, but I was wrong.

The problem is not urgent, so I can wait until 6.5-rc1.
