[PATCH 06/54] perf test: Check environment before start real BPF test

From: Wang Nan
Date: Mon Jan 25 2016 - 04:58:24 EST


Copying perf to old kernel system results:

# perf test bpf
37: Test BPF filter :
37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : FAILED!
37.2: Test BPF prologue generation : Skip

However, in case when kernel doesn't support a test case it should
return 'Skip', 'FAILED!' should be reserved for kernel tests for when
the kernel supports a feature that then fails to work as advertised.

This patch checks environment before real testcase.
