Thank you!

Yes! I started hacking a bit on that some time back:

  https://github.com/libbpf/ci/pull/87
  https://github.com/kernel-patches/vmtest/pull/194

(TL;DR: I'll continuing that work at some point.)

RISC-V still needs cross-compilation, and testing on qemu/TCG (on
typically x86-hosts), which puts some constraints on the
rootfs/cross-compilation host; For RISC-V Debian Bullseye is way too old
(a lot packages are missing/broken). Typically for BPF it would be
Ubuntu Kinetic (or later), or some Debian Sid snapshot.

The rootfs, the host, and the host foreign arch would need to be the
same for "no-hassle cross-compilation on Debian derivatives" -- and at
least younger than "Ubuntu Kinetic"-age.

AFAIU, there are some issues with rootfs version and build host
versioning for other archs as well: https://github.com/libbpf/ci/pull/83
