I see you guys with Luis are adding a lot of COMPILE_TEST. But
building only on these two architectures *is not enough*. Run at least
armv8, PPC and the x86_64. MIPS would be nice as well (I use the
CodeSourcery's MIPS). All of these (ARM64, X86_64, PPC, MIPS) can be
easily installed on typical debian-like Linux distro. Really easily.

By adding this non-tested build coverage you can actually fail some
other architecture's allyesconfig/allmodconfig builds.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
