Hello!

Thanks for following up! Sorry for the delay in this response.

This looks great to me. I do have one comment below regarding the
KUNIT_SPEED_SLOW_THRESHOLD_S macro but other than that I would be
happy with this patch.

This patch does bring up the question of how to handle KUnit warnings
as mentioned before. But I am happy to approach that in a future
patch.

And I do still have concerns with this being annoying for those on
slower architectures but again that would depend on how we deal with
KUnit warnings.

Thanks!
-Rae

I think I would prefer that KUNIT_SPEED_SLOW_THRESHOLD_S is instead
set to 2 rather than using 2 as the multiplier. I realize the actual
threshold for the attributes is 1 sec but for the practical use of
this warning it is 2 sec.

Also I would still be open to this being 1 sec depending on others
opinions. David, what are your thoughts on this?
