QA: Monitor Linux log messages as port of release (candidate) testing

Dear Guenter,
Thank you for testing release candidates and releases [1]. Is your test
setup documented somewhere?
If not happening already, could the Linux messages (at least up to log
level warning) also be monitored? For example, in Linux 5.14, a new
warning snuck in by cefc7ca462 (ACPI: PRM: implement OperationRegion
handler for the PlatformRtMechanism subtype) [2], which could have been
caught early on, and fixed before the release.
The test summaries would then also notify about possible behavior change.
Kind regards,
Paul
