The tests 'alarm_autotest' and 'cycles_autotest' rely on the underlying
system having very accurate and precise timing. On systems where the
timing isn't as rigid, or the load is particularly high, these tests are
unreliable since the wake latency from the scheduler can be high enough
to miss the timing window.
Remove the timing related tests from the test suites. These tests now
ensure the add/remove callback infrastructure unit tests, but drop the
waits and reliance on system timing and load.
This avoids FAIL on various testing infrastructures.

In the past, all the queues and other hardware objects were created
through Verbs interface. Currently, most of the objects creation are
migrated to Devx interface by default, including queues. Only when
the DV is disabled by device arg or eswitch is enabled, all or some
of the objects are created through Verbs interface.
When using Devx interface to create queues, the kernel driver
behavior is different from the case using Verbs. The Tx loopback
cannot work properly even if the Tx and Rx queues are configured
with loopback attribute. To fix the support self loopback for Tx, a
Verbs dummy queue pair needs to be created to trigger the kernel to
enable the global loopback capability.
This is only required when TIR is created for Rx and loopback is
needed. Only CQ and QP are needed for this case, no WQ(RQ) needs to
be created.
