Subprocess supervisors fail inside actiond guests because the compact kernel omits the procfs child-process list: ```text RuntimeError: cannot inspect adopted subprocesses through /proc/thread-self/children SupervisedProcessCleanupError: subprocess supervisor did not confirm descendant cleanup ``` Linux exposes `/proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/children` only when `CONFIG_PROC_CHILDREN` is enabled. The option defaults to disabled with `allnoconfig`, even when procfs itself is available. Enable `CONFIG_PROC_CHILDREN` in both ARM64 and x86_64 guest kernels. The rebuilt ARM64 kernel exposes actual child PIDs, all three previously failing subprocess-supervisor cases pass inside the guest, and the full downstream suite completes with 898 passing tests and one existing skip.
