True.  Will fix.

The test is written such that igt_subtest_slow_f() can always be used
both for fast and slow cases -- the slow flag will decide whether or not
it should bail out (combined with the --all flag, obviously).

So slow_test isn't always true.

Yeah, that could be a workable solution; in discussion with Daniel
earlier we agreed not to do a "flags" implementation, to keep things
simple for now, but it might indeed be better to do things right
from the start.

As we get to the point where we call igt_subtest with several different
flags things will probably get quite complex though; at that point
I suspect that the macro might start looking really hairy...


Kind regards, David
