Thanks a lot for fixing this stuff! The patch went into the
net-next-2024-01-26--18-00 branch we got: pass 94 / skip 2 / fail 15

https://netdev.bots.linux.dev/contest.html?branch=net-next-2024-01-26--18-00&executor=vmksft-forwarding&pw-y=0

Clicking thru a handful of the failures it looks like it's about a 50/50
split between timeouts and perf mismatch. 

BTW when it says: "WAIT TIMEOUT stdout" that means the runner got angry
because the test didn't print anything for 20 minutes. I'll bump this
timeout to an hour for the next branch, and lets see how many failures
we have left.
