Unit test results:
	pass: 472629 fail: 39

Most failures are known with fixes submitted. Patches with more details
are available in the 'fixes' branch at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/groeck/linux-staging.git.

950432b79a5d net: stmmac: Allow zero for [tr]x_fifo_size
	Fixes arm boot failures
9d7a89e83e06 dmaengine: tegra210-adma: Fix build error due to 64-by-32 division
	Fixes i386 build failures
eadf076115eb drm/i915/backlight: Return immediately when scale() finds invalid parameters
	Fixes parisc build failure

The sparc64 build failures are due to commit 1e1a9cecfab3 ("block: force
noio scope in blk_mq_freeze_queue"), which changed some APIs but not all
drivers using it.

The sheb boot failure is a problem in the sh4eb emulation, seen when
booting from flash. I just mention it here for reference and will likely
stop testing that going forward.

There is also a parisc64 boot failure seen if KFENCE and SLUB_DEBUG are
enabled. That is also an emulation bug, mentioned here for reference.

The failed unit tests are

	m68k:q800:stackinit

The patches introducing the failures are:

e71a29db79da stackinit: Add union initialization to selftests
ad9f265c7328 stackinit: Add old-style zero-init syntax to struct tests

Similar to 1e1a9cecfab3, those are all last minute patches, so I did
not have time to analyze the problems.
