Hi Andrew,

Thank you for your time and pointing out the issue. The duplicate entry
for int_pow_kunit in lib/math/Makefile and lib/math/tests/Makefile stems
from my attempt to align this patch with another[1] I had authored in a
series by David Gow that moves all lib/math/ KUnit tests to lib/math/tests/.

Since that series hasn’t landed yet, I’ll update this patch by reverting to the
current mainline approach, keeping the object file assignment in 
lib/math/Makefile.
This avoids assuming the approach in the David's patch series and prevents 
conflicts.
Once both patches are merged, I'll create a follow-up patch to align everything 
properly.

I apologize for the confusion and back-and-forth on this patch.
In reviewing your earlier feedback from v3 of this patch[2], I now realize
what you were referring to regarding the conflict. At the time, I failed to
fully understand the issue.

I appreciate your patience, and I’ll do my best to resolve this in a way that
minimizes further disruption.
