Yes, this commit doesn't affect that existing make target, so it
operates as before.

Patch 5 does however fix a pre-existing problem - currently even
with SPEED=thorough most of the qcow2 tests didn't get run, only
the "quick" tests. With this series SPEED=thorough correctly does
what people thought it was already doing.

With regards,
Daniel
