Subject: [PATCH 14/14] perf/bench: Run benchmarks, don't test them

So right now we output this text:

        memcpy: Benchmark for memcpy() functions
        memset: Benchmark for memset() functions
           all: Test all memory access benchmarks

But the right verb to use with benchmarks is to 'run' them,
not 'test' them.

So change this (and all similar texts) to:

        memcpy: Benchmark for memcpy() functions
        memset: Benchmark for memset() functions
           all: Run all memory access benchmarks
