I did, and didn't hit this somehow...

Off to go verify my tool-chain and scripts then...

I also didn't see this, but I test on some seriously bare-bones 
configurations for both the 32-bit ARM tests I run.  On further 
inspection, it looks like my scripts decided to use btrfs-for-4.13 as 
the base, not 4.13-rc1 like I thought they did, so I don't know anymore 
how helpful my testing may have been.
