The thing is that problems show up on specific machines which has
little to do with the specific CPU arch. I don't have any visibility
as to what problem you all had which prompted disabling it (for the
arch, not the kunit tests) to be able to think about a solution.
Leaving it off just means we're potentially adding regressions in the
future when we try to turn it on.
