Nice, the change makes sense to me. Have you had a chance to test it on a variety of previous releases, too, to make sure that the test still works for older systems?
I'm surprised about the "It's worthy to note that with 6.11.0-4.4, only ARM64 has failed with this test" listed in the description. Is that a realistic assessment of the issue, or was that an initial understanding that has since been shown to be incorrect?

It's worthy to note that with 6.11.0-4.4, only ARM64 has failed with this test, AMD64 and PPC64EL are good. The test is expecting return code 6 (No such device), but we got 13 (Permission denied) here on Oracular.
