Yes this should be sufficient as it exercises all the CPUs so the
overhead in flushing should be visible if this was a real deal. I would
have gone with kernel build test as that has a broader code coverage but
this artificial test should give some red flags as well. So good enough.
Amending the changelog with this would be helpful as well so that future
us and others will know what kind of testing has been done.
