Hey Jiri,

Thanks for the fix. Did you try making tc_redirect non-serial again
(s/serial_test_tc_redirect/test_tc_redirect/) and doing parallelized
test_progs run (./test_progs -j) in a tight loop for a while? I
suspect this might have been an issue forcing us to make this test
serial in the first place, so now that it's fixed, we can make
parallel test_progs a bit faster.
