Subject: [PATCH v2] perf test tsc: Fix error message report when not supported.
Date:   Wed,  6 Apr 2022 18:06:09 +0800
Message-Id: <20220406100609.65239-1-chengdongli@tencent.com>

By default `perf test tsc` does not return the error message
when child process detected kernel does not support. Instead, child
process print error message to stderr, unfortunately the stderr is
redirected to /dev/null when verbose <= 0.

This patch did three things:
- returns TEST_SKIP to parent process instead of TEST_OK when
  perf_read_tsc_conversion() is not supported.
- add a new subtest of testing if TSC is supported on current
  architecture by moving exist code to a separate function.
- extended test suite definition to contain above two subtests.

Changes since v1 (thanks for the feedback from Adrian Hunter):
- rebase commit to current source.
