Other problem is that all x86_64 machines I debug have all
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/topology/physical_package_id
files only 0, therefore all runpwtests_exclusive0*.sh are skipped.

Given how old tests are is completely useless "_tests" suffix on the runtest
file. I know renaming runtest files is not practical (at least Cyril was against
in the past), but in this case I'd be for renaming it.
