      selftests/powerpc: Purge extra count_pmc() calls of ebb selftests · 3337bf41
      Desnes A. Nunes do Rosario authored
      An extra count on ebb_state.stats.pmc_count[PMC_INDEX(pmc)] is being per-
      formed when count_pmc() is used to reset PMCs on a few selftests. This
      extra pmc_count can occasionally invalidate results, such as the ones from
      cycles_test shown hereafter. The ebb_check_count() failed with an above
      the upper limit error due to the extra value on ebb_state.stats.pmc_count.
      
      Furthermore, this extra count is also indicated by extra PMC1 trace_log on
      the output of the cycle test (as well as on pmc56_overflow_test):
