When I test the cpuset_memory_spread case,this case FAIL too often.
After dig into the code, I find out that the fowlloing things trigger
the FAIL:
1) random events,the probability is very small and can be ignored
2) get_meminfo which before send signal to test_pid
3) account_memsinfo before result_check
About 2) and 3), we can increase the value of lowerlimit to keep
the result as SUCCESS.
After discussing with Richard, we all agree to use the following
formula to calculate the lowerlimit:
lowerlimit(kb) = pagesize(byte) * 512 / 1024
