This might be less or not visible depending on the CI running the tests, especially if it is also busy doing other tasks in parallel, and if a debug kernel config is being used. It looks like this issue is often present with the NetDev CI. While this is being investigated, the tests are marked as flaky not to create noises on such CIs.
