You are dropping test_mips_malta() while the subject says
"test_mips_malta_cpio" which uses:

        deb_url = ('http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/'
                   '20160601T041800Z/pool/main/l/linux/'
                   'linux-image-4.5.0-2-4kc-malta_4.5.5-1_mips.deb')

Anyway, the lesson is we can't rely on Debian snapshot mirror
anymore, so more need to be cleaned:

$ git grep url.*snapshot.debian.org
