This seems to be a bit too specific to me, I would be more happy if we
named it "measures_sleep_time" or something that describes what the
testcase does rather than calling it after specific workaround.

Also shouldn't this be set automatically for all timer related testcases
(these that make use of the sampling function) rather than just for the
pselect one? If so we should set the flag in the tst_timer_test.c
library instead. Or we can also stick the latency setup/cleanup
into the tst_timer_test.c as well and don't bother with adding more
flags into the tst_test structure (see timer_setup() and timer_cleanup()
in the tst_timer_test.c).
