Looks (almost) good here.

Build results:
	total: 158 pass: 158 fail: 0
Qemu test results:
	total: 556 pass: 556 fail: 0
Unit test results:
	pass: 467226 fail: 0

Somthing I think I didn't report earlier:

There is an LSM related warning seen when booting some ppc emulations with SMP
enabled. I have not been able to bisect this. It is new in v6.12; it was first
seen with v6.11-2574-ga430d95c5efa2. The log is below. Maybe someone has an idea
what might cause it.
