As long as we pin to a single CPU the whole batch accounting shouldn't
be needed.
FYI Jan send a similar patch that just pins the process to a single CPU:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/ltp/patch/a308e12198ce96305761a009858fa4a80c91f932.1788518850.git.jstancek@redhat.com/
As far as I can tell that should be enough to fix the test.
