[PATCH 0/3] selftests/powerpc: ptrace/perf_hwbreak test fixes

[Naveen N. Rao]

This series fixes two issues with the perf_hwbreak test:
- Test fails on systems with large number of cpus due to hitting the 
  resource limit for maximum number of open file descriptors.
- Test fails on systems running with lower SMT levels since it assumes 
  all cpus are online.

Fix those issues. The first patch is a small cleanup to aid subsequent 
fixes.
