Right, just spotted that myself.  I started implementing these tests in
2018, finally returned to them and got them working now, and forgot to
add an architecture restriction.

I will do that, though what I really would like is for autopkgtests to
support an Architecture field for tests.

Ideally there should also be tests for arm64, but unless I can try them
out in Salsa CI it's not feasible for me to do that.
