[PATCH v2 04/10] app/test: fix timer loop hang on secondary process failure

[Bruce Richardson]

When the secondary process run from timer_secontary_autotest fails, the
timer loop is never stopped so the whole process hangs until timeout.
Fix this by setting the stop flag before checking for success or failure
of the secondary process.

Fixes: 50247fe03fe0 ("test/timer: exercise new APIs in secondary process")
