After converting CHECK to ASSERT_*, 'static int duration' is not needed any more. Otherwise,
you will hit the following compilation error with latest clang:

/home/yhs/work/bpf-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/bpf_iter.c:37:12: error: unused variable 'duration' [-Werror,-Wunused-variable]
    37 | static int duration;
       |            ^~~~~~~~
1 error generated.

Please remove 'static int duration'.
