The #ifdef can be avoided using kunit_skip(), as the crypto and CRC
tests do:

    if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_XOR_BENCHMARK))
            kunit_skip(test, "not enabled");

First one should be ktime_get_ns(), not ktime_get().

As mentioned in the other thread, this measures the speed at which the
source data is consumed, which differs from the code in
lib/raid/xor/xor-core.c that measures the speed at which the destination
data is produced.  Probably best to make them consistent.
