Can't we achieve the same thing by setting
arch:
- amd64
- arm64
in the build matrix? Or will that also force the intel builds to use
the container infrastructure (in which case the no-huge support needs to
be fixed)?
One thing I wonder, isn't is possible to use qemu-user to do the amd64
unit tests? Then do we really need some changes to do the native build?
Does it buy us anything *today* given the cost of the hugepage
restriction? Will that ever be resolved (I didn't see so from the
docs on travis)?
