armhf is the only architecture that runs tests in containers.  All other
architectures run them in VMs.  (The only reason armhf doesn't use VMs is
because we can't deploy an armhf VM in openstack.)

Hard disagree.  If the test can detect that it's running in an unprivileged
container, it should skip any tests which require privileges.  If the tests
as a whole can't be run in an unprivileged container, then they should
declare Restrictions: isolation-machine instead of Restrictions:
isolation-container.
