Yes. Both of those suite runs succeed without issues on v6.6.49,
v6.11-rc6 and with the AT_HANDLE_MNT_ID_UNIQUE patches.

I also added skipping logic such that it _should_ work on pre-5.8
kernels (pre-STATX_MNT_ID) as well, but I can't test that at the moment
(mkosi-kernel fails to boot kernels that old it seems...).

I'll send it now.

Ah okay, I missed that. That fixed the issue, thanks!
