Hello, can you please add CONFIG_MEMTEST=y to config for kernels?
It does not change default behaviour, but enables user to add memtest=4 option to kernel command line in order to do brief RAM test during boot. It is done directly by kernel without need for external tool like memtest86+, results can then be found in dmesg.

memtest= [KNL,X86,ARM] Enable memtest
Format:
default : 0
Specifies the number of memtest passes to be
performed. Each pass selects another test
pattern from a given set of patterns. Memtest
fills the memory with this pattern, validates
memory contents and reserves bad memory
regions that are detected.
