[ Upstream commit 45fa7c38696bae632310c2876ba81fdfa25cc9c2 ] Currently the `perf test` always fails the coresight test like: 89: Check Arm CoreSight trace data recording and synthesized samples: FAILED! That is because the test_arm_coresight.sh is attempting to SIGINT the parent but is using $$ rather than $PPID and it sigint's itself when run under the perf test framework. Since this is done in a trap clause it ends up returning a non zero return. Since $PPID is a bash ism and not all distros are linking /bin/sh to bash, the alternative parent pid lookups are uglier than just dropping the kill, and its not strictly needed, lets pick the simple solution and drop the sigint.
