On s390x KVM and z/VM machines the CPU Measurement Facility is not
available. Events cycles and instructions do not exist. Running above
tests on s390 KVM and z/VM guests always fail with this error:
# ./perf test 84 86
84: perf stat JSON output linter : FAILED!
86: perf stat STD output linter : FAILED!
#
Root cause is command:
# perf stat -j --metric-only -e instructions,cycles -- true
{"metric-value" : "none"}
#
Which fails due to unsupported events and returns "none".
Do not execute this test case on s390 KVM and z/VM machines.
Output after:
# ./perf test 84 86
84: perf stat JSON output linter : Ok
86: perf stat STD output linter : Ok
#
Fixes: 45a86d017a ("perf test: Add --metric-only to perf stat output tests")
