selftests/tracing: Fix event filter test to retry up to 10 times
[ Upstream commit 0f42bdf59b4e428485aa922bef871bfa6cc505e0 ]
Commit eb50d0f250e9 ("selftests/ftrace: Choose target function for filter
test from samples") choose the target function from samples, but sometimes
this test failes randomly because the target function does not hit at the
next time. So retry getting samples up to 10 times.
