OK, for 2.22 when it opens.

All of our tests should work consistently for all of our supported
machines, and now that Nios II is checked in, this patch has a reason
to exist.

I'm sure you know, but just to reiterate, you could use TIMEOUTFACTOR
env-var to work around this, but it's always good to make this work
out of the box.

Cheers,
Carlos.
