Title:
f/linux: log_check WARNING on c3a-standard-4
Status in ubuntu-kernel-tests:
New
Bug description:
log_check/kernel_tainted tests will fail on AmpereOne based machines
like c3a-standard-4 for focal:linux 5.4.0-168.186 and newer. The
kernel will issue the following warning and consequently taint the
kernel:

The warning was introduced with upstream commit
f41cab7a4653 arm64: Add AMPERE1 to the Spectre-BHB affected list
that came with upstream stable release v5.4.253 as part of
Ubuntu-5.4.0-168.186:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2038652
Looking at the code, this warning will always be issued on AMPERE1
based machines but Spectre-BHB mitigation should be guaranteed
regardless.
