Subject: selftests/bpf: Skip the second half of get_branch_snapshot in vm
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc1
Git-commit: aa67fdb4643616f04cb59b6d090010c371ab1a80
References: jsc#PED-1377

VMs running on upstream 5.12+ kernel support LBR. However,
bpf_get_branch_snapshot couldn't stop the LBR before too many entries
are flushed. Skip the hit/waste test for VMs before we find a proper fix
for LBR in VM.
