The save/restore of nr_hugepages was added to the test itself by using the
atexit() functionality. But it is broken as parent exits after creating
child. Hence calling the atexit() function early. That's not it. The
child exits after creating its child and so on.
The parent cannot wait to get the termination status for its children as
it'll keep on holding the resources until the new pkey allocation fails.
It is impossible to wait for exits of all the grand and great grand
children. Hence the restoring of nr_hugepages value from parent is wrong.
Let's save/restore the nr_hugepages settings in the launch script
instead of doing it in the test.

The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.
But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:
Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
A few spots in tools/testing/selftests still refer to this older debugfs
path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.
