Commit a64056bb5a32 ("drm/tests/drm_buddy: add alloc_contiguous test"):

+       u64 mm_size, ps = SZ_4K, i, n_pages, total;
...
+       n_pages = mm_size / ps;

This patch breaks the build on all 32-bit systems since it introduces an
unhandled direct 64-bit divide operation.

Nothing new, so shortened.

Unit test failures
==================

Previously reported:

checksum (various architectures)
cpumask (parisc only)
stackinit (m68k only)

New (that is, newly enabled)

mean and variance tests (all architectures)
-------------------------------------------

This is bcachefs related.

test cases 2 and 4 fail on all architectures/branches, and I don't see how
those tests can pass. See report for details.

Report:

drm kunit tests (all architecstures, with qemu)
-----------------------------------------------

Failures all over the place when running in qemu, followed by list corruptions
and a crash. Anyone interested is invited to enable CONFIG_DRM_KUNIT_TEST,
CONFIG_DRM_TTM_KUNIT_TEST, CONFIG_DRM_XE_KUNIT_TEST, CONFIG_DRM_VC4_KUNIT_TEST
together with lockdep and list debugging, run the resulting images in qemu,
and look at the results.

Note: This is a one-time report; there are two many issues to list here.
I reported a recently introduced problem at
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/a45b796d-5e04-4eac-b5ba-ea6bb3b6131b@roeck-us.net/
and tried to analyze further, but there are just too many issues and I gave up.
