Hmm, I tried running tests in a slightly non-standard way (compiling
the will-be-6.12 code on a 6.10 kernel and installing the module)
because that's what I could do for now, and I'm getting system hangs
in a few tests. The first ones that hung were

hyperv_ipi
hyperv_tlb_flush
xapic_ipi_test

And of course, this is on a machine that doesn't have serial
console... :( I think for now I'll push the non-x86 stuff to kvm/next
and then either bisect or figure out how to run tests normally.
