    mdadm: drop from PTESTS_SLOW
    
    There are two primary reasons for this:
    
    1. mdadm test suite tends to work like this
    
    do_action
    sleep arbitrary_amount
    check_result
    
    This is unreliable, and arbitrary_amount may or may not be enough.
    I have confirmed this by increasing the amount, and seeing more tests
    pass than before.
    
    2. The test suite aborts half way through because one of the mdadm binaries
    segfaults. This indicates that upstream isn't actually running the suite
    anymore, and in this situation we shouldn't be relying on it either.
