We were recently working on openqa based testing and is a very basic
testing for now.. Build the kernel for x86_64 and arm64, boot it on
qemu and rpi4 and test that the desktop environment is working. And,
it now tests mainline branch every night. So, last night it tested
"5.14.0-7d2a07b76933" and both tests were ok.

rpi4: https://openqa.qa.codethink.co.uk/tests/68
qemu: https://openqa.qa.codethink.co.uk/tests/67
