[LTP] [PATCH] hugeshmctl02: Skipped EFAULT tests for libc variant

When testing hugeshmctl02 under the 32bit architecture, a segmentation fault
will occur. This patch will skip EFAULT tests for libc variant.

Hugeshmctl02 will intentionally pass "(struct shmid_ds *)-1" to shmctl(), but
glibc will perform an additional conversion function when the architecture is
32bit, which will try to copy all items in (struct shmid_ds *) to another
structure[*1]. In the process of copying, it is necessary to dereference
"(struct shmid_ds *)-1", resulting in segmentation fault.

The LTP also has similar problems before, this patch is reference from the
shmctl03 patch[*2].
