Ah, got it I guess, this series adds support for aarch64 user-mode
emulation on any FreeBSD kernels, so IIUC we can test it on the current
FreeBSD x86 job we have. Currently the x64-freebsd-13-build job uses:

  CONFIGURE_ARGS: 
--target-list-exclude=arm-softmmu,i386-softmmu,microblaze-softmmu,mips64el-softmmu,mipsel-softmmu,mips-softmmu,ppc-softmmu,sh4eb-softmmu,xtensa-softmmu
  TEST_TARGETS: check

So the aarch64-bsd-user target should be selected automatically,
is that correct?

(got it, my request to test aarch64 FreeBSD *host* is orthogonal).
