Those tests are x86 specific for now.  tco-test is of some ICH9
internal device so it probably always will be.  But it's absolutely
possible to have a legacy IDE controller on another platform.

Even if those specific tests don't happen, it's likely someone will
want to test some sort of legacy device on another platform at some
point.

[Even though the "legacy" in question is old PCs, it's not uncommon to
see these devices on other platforms - a PC-style southbridge chip
including an ISA bridge and legacy devices is a cheap way of getting a
bunch of useful gadgets on your board, so it's pretty common on many
archs]
