Title:
  autopkgtests fail on s390x (segfault)

Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:
  New
Status in libtracefs package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  As part of the added QA to libtracefs it was found that it triggers a segfault on s390x.
  This isn't just a test failing, it seems this is still deeply broken on s390x.

  Either way, while in the time pressure of the noble release the
  decision was simplified like "The tests didn't make it worse, just now
  we know" and continued (To not leave these platforms behind later
  unable to add it, albeit knowing it is still incomplete for now).

  It does not mean that we can ignore them for too long and certainly
  need to work on completing that into being fully functional in tests
  and real usage. Hence we create this spin off bug from the MIR work in
  bug 2051925 for tracking the further efforts.

  Example test log:
