https://kerneltests.org/builders/qemu-arm-next/builds/2086/steps/qemubuildcommand/logs/stdio

are examples from different arm machines.

https://kerneltests.org/builders/qemu-xtensa-master/builds/2178/steps/qemubuildcommand/logs/stdio

is an example from xtensa.

https://kerneltests.org/builders/qemu-x86-master/builds/2248/steps/qemubuildcommand/logs/stdio

is an example from a 32-bit x86 test.

I am sure there are others; I only notice the messages if there is some other problem,
and came to believe that they must be noise because it happens across several
architectures and because it claimed at the end that all tests passed.

Just to confirm, I ran a test with big and little endian mips machines.
The problem is only seen with the little endian 32-bit machine. It is not
seen with the 32-bit big endian machine, and it is not seen with any of
the 64-bit machines (big and little endian).
