I think that if test operates on a key like:

      valid key 15
             v
      0000000f   <-- written to stack as a single u64 value
      ^^^^^^^
    stack zero marks

and is executed (e.g. using __retval annotation),
then CI passing for s390 should be enough.

There is a guide on how to gen a s390 environment locally:
https://docs.kernel.org/bpf/s390.html
I used it recently to build a vmlinux for s390 with no or minimal
issues. Used it to boot long time ago, but don't remember if there
were any surprises.

I think Andrii means that each 'm' adds 8 bits of range.
E.g. range for 0000_000m is 0-255, range for 0000_00mm is 0-65535, etc.
