Timeout is good, but really tests should not hang. So we have to somehow
indicate that the test needs to be fixed.

This timeout is a band-aid and not real solution for the problem. This
arbitrary value doesn't take into account that the test(s) in that
particular directory (TARGET) could be running normally and working
through all the tests.

We need some way to differentiate the two cases.

There is the individual test times and overall kselftest run time. We
have lots of tests now and it does take long.
