The Fedora 29 kernel is quite old and importantly fails when running
in LPA2 scenarios. As it's not really exercising much of the CPU space
replace it with a custom 5.16.12 kernel with all the architecture
options turned on. There is a minimal buildroot initramfs included in
the kernel which has a few tools for stress testing the memory
subsystem. The userspace also targets the Neoverse N1 processor so
will fail without additional v8.x+ features.

Maybe better as "would fail with a v8.0 cpu like cortex-a53"?
The way it is worded now suggests it won't work at all at present, since we don't completely support all features of the neoverse-n1.
