Re: [PATCH i-g-t v2 1/8] tests/gem_exec_flush: Remove tests from BAT.

The explanation is the same as in the previous series: the GEM tests are
taking too long. Either I sack them under nightly runs or decrease the
runtime. As new tests are added, it will take too long to provide
meaningful output from BAT. There are platforms that reach the timeout
(of 15minutes), and the slowest platform is the one that provides the
runtime for the entire CI system (as we wait and collect the results
from all of them).

Not being able to complete under a 5min makes BAT useless and more than
once you mention that even at their current runtime some GEM tests have
to have a higher runtime to trigger relevant bugs, which in your own
words it makes sense to have them run for (some) extended period of
time.  Even though running once per night has some disadvantage if the
tests are reliable if won't be that hard to catch the regression(s).
