This check doesn't seem to be working. On my Zen3 AMD machine:

  $ sudo ./perf test -vvv 105
  105: perf metrics value validation                                   :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 518035
  Skipping non-Intel
  Launch python validation script ./tests/shell/lib/perf_metric_validation.py
  Output will be stored in: /tmp/__perf_test.program.tnPoW
  Starting perf collection
  ...

Interestingly, it passes :)

  ...
  Test validation finished. Final report:

  test child finished with 0

  perf metrics value validation: Ok

I haven't yet investigated whether it's genuine or false positive.

Thanks,
Ravi
