I could definitely get behind that as well. For what it's worth, we're
(after a couple of stalls due to upstream rewrites) pushing forward
execution of igt within KernelCI. The results are not yet visible
within kernelci.org, but the tests are at least executing and we're
hoping they'll be tracked and visible soon.

If it helps, maybe we could draw up a list somewhere (README in igt?
wiki?) of which tests seem to pass generically across a few drivers,
which ones are expected to pass, which ones don't but really should,
etc. I'm currently running on imx-drm (complicated by hitting a
page-cache BUG!), and a couple of others are getting results from
rockchip, vc4, and msm. Those are pretty well supported and actively
maintained, so should give us a decent first cut at such a list.

Cheers,
Daniel
