IMHO it's not a fault to have these variables; they're still the fastest way to
do branching.  It's just that in some cases we should set them to "false"
rather than "true", am I right?

How about we just set them properly in set_test_type?  Say, we can fetch the
feature bits in set_test_type rather than assuming it's only related to the
type of memory.

Thanks,
