One does not follow from the other. arch_supports_noncont_cat() is only
small part of the tests so saying "This test" based on a small subset of
all tests is bogus. Also, I don't see any reason why ARCH_ARM could not be
added and arch_supports_noncont_cat() adapted accordingly.

As this seems the real reason, please quote any errors when you use them
as justification so it can be reviewed if the reasoning is sound or not.
