Subject: [PATCH 5.4 312/388] perf tests: Fix test 68 zstd compression for s390

From: Thomas Richter <tmricht@...ux.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit 463538a383a27337cb83ae195e432a839a52d639 ]

Commit 5aa98879efe7 ("s390/cpum_sf: prohibit callchain data collection")
prohibits call graph sampling for hardware events on s390. The
information recorded is out of context and does not match.

On s390 this commit now breaks test case 68 Zstd perf.data
compression/decompression.

Therefore omit call graph sampling on s390 in this test.

Output before:
  [root@...lp46 perf]# ./perf test -Fv 68
  68: Zstd perf.data compression/decompression              :
  --- start ---
  Collecting compressed record file:
  Error:
  cycles: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts.
                                Try 'perf stat'
  ---- end ----
  Zstd perf.data compression/decompression: FAILED!
  [root@...lp46 perf]#

Output after:
[root@...lp46 perf]# ./perf test -Fv 68
  68: Zstd perf.data compression/decompression              :
