perf tests attr: Fix sample_period setup

2017-07-19T02:14:20Z

The final period can differ from what user specifies on command line due to the perf_event_max_sample_rate sysctl setup. Thus we can't predixt the sample_period value any more.

perf tests attr: Add proper return values

2017-07-19T02:14:19Z

The record command now properly returns the status of the tracee if there's any. We need to properly set the expected return value of the tracee in the attr tests.
