Shouldn't this compare against v4.4.132 ?

I looked into kselftest/rtnetlink.sh test results.
The test history is a bit confusing.

- v4.4.131-57-ge33795f7a573 and earlier passed
- v4.4.132 failed 
- v4.4.132-30-ga102378c6551 passed
...
- v4.4.132-70-gaa7ab28e9c5e passed
- v4.4.132-71-g180635995c36 and later failed

Does that mean that this specific test is unreliable ?

Thanks,
