I think publishing these test results to the mailing list confuses 
matters somewhat. The tests are not tuned for armv7, and there are many 
false negatives, giving the impression that the results are worse than 
they actually should be.

The tests need to be analysed to see if they respect the --no-huge and 
--no-pci flags correctly, I suspect some tests are being run even though 
these flags are enabled.

I believe enough of the tests pass to allow the initial version of the 
patch set to be accepted. We can look at the failing cases later, and 
improve the test suite as time goes on.

Thanks,
Dave.
