Makes sense, but most of these unit tests use rte_thread_create and
rte_thread_join to handle the creation and cleanup of the threads
that are being tested, so I'm forced to have this test patch at the end.
I could still break it up into smaller patches, one for each test category
(mutex, attributes, etc) if you want.
