arm32 testing is production in osstest.

The new rack is to replace the existing h/w used in production, since
that can't be shipped to the colo for various reasons.

We should probably move some of the tests from below the cut to above
already, e.g. do_sedf_tests and do_credit2_tests aren't arch specific,
so should be run on arm.

That's not your problem, but if you could add the new test above the cut
that would be great. I'll sort out the other ones at some point.
