The test has been failing for some time when two separate runs of
perf benchmarks are recorded for cycles events and their counts are
compared, while once the recording was done with option --bpf-counters
and once without it. It is expected that the count of the samples
should be within a certain range, firstly the difference was set to be
within 10%, which was then later raised to 20%. However, the test case
keeps failing on certain architectures as recording the provided
benchmark can produce completely different counts based on the
current load of the system.

Sampling two separate runs on intel-eaglestream-spr-13 of "perf stat
--no-big-num -e cycles -- perf bench sched messaging -g 1 -l 100 -t":

, which is ranging from 400mil to 1400mil samples.

Instead of recording the cycles use instructions event, which provides
more stable values. At the same time change the tested workload to one
of the provided testing workloads by perf that is not based on a
scheduler, which can provide another dependency on the current load.

Sampling instructions event with the new workload provide much more
stable results on intel-eaglestream-spr-13 of "perf stat --no-big-num
-e instructions -- perf test -w brstack":
