VMs running on latest kernel support LBR. However, bpf_get_branch_snapshot
couldn't stop the LBR before too many entries are flushed. Skip the test
for VMs before we find a proper fix for VMs.

Read the "flags" line from /proc/cpuinfo, if it contains "hypervisor",
skip test get_branch_snapshot.

Fixes: 025bd7c753aa (selftests/bpf: Add test for bpf_get_branch_snapshot)

Forgot to use --subject-prefix. This applies to bpf-next.

Thanks,

strncmp() would be more explicit. That's what you are trying to do
(prefix match), right?

Aha, I copied this line from e31eec77e4ab90dcec7d2da93415f839098dc287. Will fix.
