perf test: Fix 'Simple expression parser' test on arch without CPU die topology info
Some platforms do not have CPU die support, for example s390.

fails on s390:
# perf test -Fv 7
...
# FAILED tests/expr.c:173 #num_dies >= #num_packages
---- end ----
Simple expression parser: FAILED!
#
Investigating this issue leads to these functions:
build_cpu_topology()
+--> has_die_topology(void)
{
struct utsname uts;
if (uname(&uts) < 0)
return false;
if (strncmp(uts.machine, "x86_64", 6))
return false;
....
}
which always returns false on s390. The caller build_cpu_topology()
checks has_die_topology() return value. On false the the struct
cpu_topology::die_cpu_list is not contructed and has zero entries. This
leads to the failing comparison: #num_dies >= #num_packages. s390 of
course has a positive number of packages.
Fix this and check if the function build_cpu_topology() did build up
a die_cpus_list. The number of entries in this list should be larger
than 0. If the number of list element is zero, the die_cpus_list has
not been created and the check in function test__expr():
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_dies >= #num_packages", \
num_dies >= num_packages)
always fails.
Output after:
# perf test -Fv 7
7: Simple expression parser :
--- start ---
division by zero
syntax error
---- end ----
Simple expression parser: Ok
