Leo Yan 1dc481c0b0 perf test: Change to use bash for daemon test
When executing the daemon test on Arm64 and x86 with Debian (Buster)
distro, both skip the test case with the log:

  # ./perf test -v 76
  76: daemon operations                                               :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 11687
  test daemon list
  trap: SIGINT: bad trap
  ./tests/shell/daemon.sh: 173: local: cpu-clock: bad variable name
  test child finished with -2
  ---- end ----
  daemon operations: Skip

So the error happens for the variable expansion when use local variable
in the shell script.  Since Debian Buster uses dash but not bash as
non-interactive shell, when execute the daemon testing, it hits a known
issue for dash which was reported [1].

To resolve this issue, one option is to add double quotes for all local
variables assignment, so need to change the code from:

  local line=`perf daemon --config ${config} -x: | head -2 | tail -1`

  ... to:

  local line="`perf daemon --config ${config} -x: | head -2 | tail -1`"

But the testing script has bunch of local variables, this leads to big
changes for whole script.

On the other hand, the testing script asks to use the "local" feature
which is bash-specific, so this patch explicitly uses "#!/bin/bash" to
ensure running the script with bash.

After:

  # ./perf test -v 76
  76: daemon operations                                               :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 11329
  test daemon list
  test daemon reconfig
  test daemon stop
  test daemon signal
  signal 12 sent to session 'test [11596]'
  signal 12 sent to session 'test [11596]'
  test daemon ping
  test daemon lock
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  daemon operations: Ok

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
