selftests/resctrl: Remove requirement on cache miss rate
As the CAT test reads the same buffer into different sized cache portions
it compares the number of cache misses against an expected percentage
based on the size of the cache portion.
Systems and test conditions vary. The CAT test is a test of resctrl
subsystem health and not a test of the hardware architecture so it is not
required to place requirements on the size of the difference in cache
misses, just that the number of cache misses when reading a buffer
increase as the cache portion used for the buffer decreases.
Remove additional constraint on how big the difference between cache
misses should be as the cache portion size changes. Only test that the
cache misses increase as the cache portion size decreases. This remains
a good sanity check of resctrl subsystem health while reducing impact
of hardware architectural differences and the various conditions under
which the test may run.
Increase the size difference between cache portions to additionally avoid
any consequences resulting from smaller increments.
