Attaching debdiff from 5.19-0ubuntu1 to 6.1-0.1ubuntu1:
strace_5.19-0ubuntu1.dsc-to-strace_6.1-0.1ubuntu1.dsc.diff

I've removed the change related to kexec_file_load because our build/test machines arm64+armhf machines should have kernels recent enough now.
I'd also like to remove other patches but we can do this during the 23.10 cycle (this will require running on test machines which I don't have access to myself).

There's a work-around for the following issue:
- strace testsuite creates huge but sparse files
- autopkgtest calls tar with -S/--sparse
- tar reads the huge-but-sparse files in full and expands them
- this increase storage requirements by 2*3TB of storage which machines probably don't have
- build fails

I'll see during the stabilization of 23.04 or development of 23.10 if I
can reproduce that outside of debian packaging and if so, discuss that
issue upstream.
