Hi all,
After merging the mm-unstable tree, today's linux-next build (arm64
kunit) failed like this:

Triggered by commit
ebc1ff504f557 (lib: add kunit boundary tests for percpu_counter_tree comparisons)
though as it's a newly added test it's obviously entirely plausible that
it's flagging an existing bug. I used the tree from next-20260316
instead.
