I'm not quite sure where to draw the line to ensure that doesn't become silly (@jrtc27 opinions?), but in this case it looks like the codegen might be the same for both subarchs, so it might not even require any additional clutter.

Disagree with laziness.

The downside is the test time & readability. Duplicating RUN lines for nearly every test will unnecessarily increase test time.
CodeGen/RISCV, 886 files, 1029044 lines, lines/files is much larger than any other target.

There are dedicated tests for GOT. We should not add un-orthogonal tests to too many files.
