A patch that is meant to address the issue related to D4.11, which makes 
the Arm job always
fail with a report on a clean guideline, has been submitted on the ML:

https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/3f163bb58993410183229e72eb1f227057f9b1c7.1699034273.git.nicola.vetrini@xxxxxxxxxxx/

We are not aware of any semi-random failures in the ARM64 analysis, and 
applying this patch
should fix the problem. The error "error: No such remote: 
'autoPRRemote'" should not impact
the outcome of the job in any way.

Let us know if there are other Arm-related problems to be addressed.

Kind Regards,
