Let's increase the mem_access loop count by defining COUNT=250 (instead of 20) and define a more reasonable margin (100 instead of 15 previously) so that it gives better chance to accommodate for HW implementation variance. Those values were chosen arbitrarily higher. Those values fix the random failures on ThunderX2 machines.
