    Revert "CI: Disable bare metal testing on RL9/c9s" · 990370a3
    Pierre Riteau authored
    This requires disabling libvirt_vm_trust_guest_rx_filters, which when
    enabled triggers the following errors when booting baremetal instances
    with Tenks on Libvirt 9 (and most likely since 8.9.0):
    
        Cannot set interface flags on 'macvtap1': Value too large for defined data type
    
    This is apparently triggered by a Libvirt commit refreshing rx-filters
    more often [1].
    
    As explained in I71a2051d8acd63379bd70bc1287a059d4a7f6387, this setting
    was added to allow traffic destined for other MAC addresses to reach VMs
    when using a macvtap interface.
    
    This will prevent multicast from working, but we don't need it for
    baremetal tests in CI.
    
    This setting will be enabled again once the issue is resolved in either
    Libvirt or Tenks.
    
    This reverts commit 21c68bbf.
    
    Also increase timeout of upgrade jobs which is too short now due to the
    added delay added by bare metal testing.
