I usually let many of the new tests that depend on new features go through
x86 tree. Patches that fix problems that are already in kselftest, I send
them up in via kselftest.

I noticed these when very early on when 4.10-rc1 came out and send the patches
out. SO they have been in linux-kselftest next for a while now.
