Either use github workflows, registering your runner as a private one
against the repo (and control who can trigger it, likely not PRs which
we don't do anyway). That way, CI would become publicly readable.

Gitlab is fine as well as long as the instance is on the Internet
(private one or gitlab.com). That's how we do it in Xenomai right now
(with private AWS runners sponsored by us).
