Review comment:
       tests don't run concurrently in the same python instance. if we do run 
tests concurrently, we use a different python interpreter (e.g. with xdist). a 
lot more stuff is gonna break if we run two tests concurrently in tvm. 
   
   that said, i agree a better solution is probably to pass in the linker path 
rather than relying on system linker. up to you which route you want to go 
here--passing in the linker path is likely more invasive. however, if you 
choose to stick with this solution, could you unregister the global override 
(e.g. remember what it was before you registered new linker and set it back)?
