commit df21d2fa733035e4d414379960f94b2516b41296 upstream.

Test uses PMC2 to count the event. But PMC1 is being initialized.
Patch to fix it.

commit a2b1e8a20c992b01eeb76de00d4f534cbe9f3822 upstream.

Nothing in this minimal script seems to require bash. We often run these
tests on embedded devices where the only shell available is the busybox
ash. Use sh instead.

and verify the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limitation works properly.
