Nice, the change makes sense to me.

Have you had a chance to test it on a variety of previous releases, too,
to make sure that the test still works for older systems?

I'm surprised about the "It's worthy to note that with 6.11.0-4.4, only
ARM64 has failed with this test" listed in the description. Is that a
realistic assessment of the issue, or was that an initial understanding
that has since been shown to be incorrect?

Thanks

Title:
  test_032_dev_kmem from ubuntu_qrt_kernel_security failed on Oracular
  (Permission denied)

Status in QA Regression Testing:
  New
Status in ubuntu-kernel-tests:
  New

Bug description:
  Issue found on Openstack amd64/arm64/ppc64el with Oracular since
  6.11.0-5.5 in d2024.08.12.

  It's worthy to note that with 6.11.0-4.4, only ARM64 has failed with
  this test, AMD64 and PPC64EL are good.

  The test is expecting return code 6 (No such device), but we got 13
  (Permission denied) here on Oracular.

  Test log:
