Yes, backporting would be ideal from a CI perspective because without it we
can't run arm64 testing on LTS tests. But I know there are other
considerations which also have to be weighed.

David also has a patch[1] which should resolve the underlying issue which
introduces the failures on the unit test we want to skip. If that patch is
accepted, and backported, fixing our original problem with unit testing on
our arm testbeds, that's another solution, at least for this specific unit
test issue.

It would still be nice to have this feature in case we need it otherwise.
