Build results:
	total: 151 pass: 151 fail: 0
Qemu test results:
	total: 315 pass: 312 fail: 3
Failed tests: 
	powerpc:g3beige:ppc_book3s_defconfig:nosmp:ide:rootfs
	i386:pc:EPYC:defconfig:smp:efi32:scsi[MEGASAS]:rootfs 
	i386:pc:Westmere:defconfig:pae:smp:efi32:usb:rootfs

The failed powerpc test is the result of a crash in devicetree unittest code. 
It affects all branches. Nothing to worry about; fix is being worked on.

The failed i386 qemu boot tests are spurious and happen during reboot;
the system shuts down early. This deserves some analysis, but is nothing
to worry about at this time.

Several of the qemu test results show runtime warnings not previously seen.
This is because I enabled various debug options. I'll analyze and report
those separately. This affects all releases.

Details are available at https://kerneltests.org/builders/.
