There is no such thing as "the kernel works". A piece of software as complex as Linux has bugs, and it depends on the workload if you encounter problems or not. Thus, the answer is, "by trying".

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/upda...020-cf2eacc932 and https://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?t=37887, for example.

You may get better answers by asking more specific questions.
