The number of failing tests on the evbarm-earmv7hf testbed increased sharply
with this commit:

This commit had the effect of adding a tmpfs mount for /tmp which was
previously on the root file system. The tmpfs is limited to 25% of
RAM and the testbed VM has 128 MB of RAM, so /tmp is now only 32 MB,
which is too little to reliably run the ATF tests.
See PR 54886 for some possibly relevant discussion about a similar issue
on i386.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run the ATF tests on an evbarm system with 128 MB of RAM.
