You could run user-mode-linux, or possibly kvm if the platform has nested VMs.

Yeah, user-mode-linux should have sufficed in this case.

And there are CI pipelines on https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/ running VMs via KVM, which should allow booting kernels built as part of the pipeline as well. (Another possibility is having dedicated test machines which can be powered on/off remotely; Mesa is using a number of those for testing GPU drivers)
