The Linux kernel version 6.18.3 was built and boot-tested using qemu-x86_64
and qemu-arm64 with the default configuration (defconfig).

Both build and boot processes completed successfully on arm64 and x86_64.
The kernel operated as expected in the virtualized environments, and no issues
were observed. No dmesg regressions were found.

Build details:
Architectures: arm64, x86_64
Kernel version: 6.18.3
Configuration: defconfig
Source: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable-rc.git
