Shouldn't we define _GNU_SOURCE here as well? We do that in the m4
check...

Just a minor note, we can initialize the fzsync_pair statically
something as:

#define TST_FZSYNC_INITIALIZER { \
	.avg_alpha = 0.25,       \
	.delay_inc = 10,         \
	.update_gap = 0xF        \
}

Then do:

static struct tst_fzsync_pair fzsync_pair = TST_FZSYNC_INITIALIZER;

Otherwise this test and the library both looks fine.
