Did not get much feedback, you are all probably busy attending LPC conferences, but I was wondering if this did make sense or if there is a better approach that should be looked at?
I am starting to see additional tests failing that require some ARM (32-bit) specific changes, and not accumulating too many of these fixes on top of that series would be neat.
Thank you!
