There are 43 instances of posix shell tests and 35 instances of bash. To
give us a single consistent language for testing in, replace
all #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash. Common sources that are included in both
different shells will now work as expected. And we no longer have to fix
up bashisms that appear to work when someone's system has sh symlinked
to bash, but don't work on other systems that have both shells
installed.
Although we could have chosen sh, it's not backwards compatible so it
wouldn't be possible to bulk convert without re-writing the existing
bash tests.
Choosing bash also gives us some nicer features including 'local'
variable definitions and regexes in if statements that are already
widely used in the tests.
It's not expected that there are any users with only sh available due to
the large number of bash tests that exist.

Since we added --off-cpu-thresh, add tests for when a sample's off-cpu
time is above the threshold, and when it's below the threshold.
Note that the basic test performed in test_offcpu_basic() collects a
direct sample now, since sleep 1 has duration of 1000ms, higher than the
default value of --off-cpu-thresh of 500ms, resulting in a direct
sample.
An example:
$ sudo perf test offcpu
124: perf record offcpu profiling tests : Ok
$
Committer testing:
root@number:~# perf test offcpu
126: perf record offcpu profiling tests : Ok
root@number:~# perf test -v offcpu
126: perf record offcpu profiling tests : Ok
root@number:~# perf test -vv offcpu
126: perf record offcpu profiling tests:
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 1410791
Checking off-cpu privilege
Basic off-cpu test
Basic off-cpu test [Success]
Child task off-cpu test

On s390 using linux-next the test case:
87: perf record offcpu profiling tests
fails. The root cause is this command
# ./perf record --off-cpu -e dummy -- ./perf bench sched messaging -l 10
# Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
# 20 sender and receiver processes per group
# 10 groups == 400 processes run
Total time: 0.231 [sec]
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.077 MB perf.data (401 samples) ]
#
It does not generate 800+ sample entries, on s390 usually around
40[1-9], sometimes a few more, but never more than 450. The higher the
number of CPUs the lower the number of samples.
Looking at function chain:
bench_sched_messaging()
+--> group()
the senders and receiver threads are created. The senders and receivers
call function ready() which writes one bytes and wait for a reply using
poll system() call.
As context switches are counted, the function ready() will trigger a
context switch when no input data is available after the write system
call. The write system call does not trigger context switches when the
data size is small. And writing 1000 bytes (10 iterations with
100 bytes) is not much and certainly won't block.
The 400+ context switch on s390 occur when the some receiver/sender
threads call ready() and wait for the response from function
bench_sched_messaging() being kicked off.
Lower the number of expected context switches to 400 to succeed on s390.

Fixed the warnings by:

- Adding quotes to avoid word splitting.

This reverts commit a980755beb.
We need to better polish building with BPF skels, so revert back to
making it an experimental feature that has to be explicitely enabled
using BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1.
