For Go, the following test fails frequently.

--- FAIL: TestRead (0.05s)
    --- FAIL: TestRead/SpecialFile (0.05s)
        read_test.go:25: read /sys/devices/system/cpu/online: bad address
        read_test.go:25: read /sys/devices/system/cpu/online: bad address

I think the first time I saw that is
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=golang-1.22&arch=mips64el&ver=1.22%7Erc1-2&stamp=1704593490&raw=0
Which uses kernel 6.1.69-1.
