I'm puzzled by this in two ways: First that this is being done at all,
when 32-bit PV Xen support has gone away several releases back. If the
purpose is to cover PVH and/or HVM, then I guess the test name has
become misleading.

And second that this fails on a KVM related build error:

arch/x86/kvm/x86.c: In function ‘vcpu_enter_guest’:
arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:9948:1: error: unsupported size for integer register
 }
 ^
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:287: arch/x86/kvm/x86.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

To limit the risk of unrelated build breakage, wouldn't it make sense
to keep off Kconfig settings which aren't really of interest?

For these I assume Arm folks are aware and will look into the cause.
At a first glance it seems to be the NIC driver which is unhappy.
