[1] ftrace crash, known issue, waiting for fix to land from upstream in 4.10
[2] failed to build tests, not a kernel issue per se
[3] resumption FAIL on TRAP.handler
[4] failed test 213 - setsocketopt(SO_SNDBUFFORCE) does not accept negative values
[5] seems like an issue in the test
    "AttributeError: 'ubuntu_qrt_kernel' object has not attribute 'install_rquired_pkgs', fixed the test and it works OK now
[6] kernel oops, rebooted
[7] test failed on fetching 
[8] libapparmor perl5lib and python3 lib test failures
[9] various failures:
