Looks very good now, there are few very minor points see below.

It may be worth to add SAFE_PTHREAD_BARRIER_WAIT() to the
tst_safe_pthread_h to make the code nicer.

This is very minor however we do not seem to use set anywhere outside
the setup so we may as well free it there.

Is there a reason why we run the actual test in the child?

We do have SAFE_CLOCK_GETTIME() please use them.

We do have a tst_timespec_diff_{us,ns,ms} functions in the tst_timer.h
so we may as well use them.
