If you authored any net or drivers/net selftests, please look around
and see if they are passing. If not - send patches or LMK what I need
to do to make them pass on the runner.. Make sure to scroll down to 
the "Not reporting to patchwork" section.  

A whole bunch of them fail because of no IPv6 support in the runner
kernel. E.g. this from bridge-mdb.sh[0]:

Thanks a lot for investigating! I take it that you're looking at
forwarding? Please send a patch to add the missing configs to

tools/testing/selftests/net/forwarding/config

The runner uses that to configure the kernel on top of defconfig.

Unless I'm doing it wrong and the sub-directories are supposed to
inherit the parent directory's config? So net/forwarding/ should
be built with net/'s config? I could not find the info in docs,
does anyone know?
