Build results:
total: 168 pass: 168 fail: 0
Qemu test results:
total: 408 pass: 408 fail: 0

Tested-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Having said this, I did see a spurious crash, and I see an unusual warning.
I have seen the crash only once, but the warning happens with every boot.
These are likely not new but exposed because I added network interface
tests. This is all v4.14.y specific; I did not see it in other branches.
See below for the tracebacks. Maybe someone has seen it before.

Thanks,
Guenter
