This was a flake. Rerun was fine. Updated results:

Build results:
total: 136 pass: 136 fail: 0
Qemu test results:
total: 112 pass: 112 fail: 0

Having said that, building 44x/bamboo_defconfig on its own in 3.18.y (not
part of the test script) does fail with that error, but that is nothing new.
I'll look into that if I find the time.
