[LTP] [PATCH 2/2] tst_cgroup: tolerate ESRCH in cgroup_drain()

From: Andrea Cervesato <andrea.cervesato@suse.com>
A process can die between reading cgroup.procs and writing its PID
to the destination cgroup. When this happens, the kernel returns
ESRCH which is a normal race condition, not a test infrastructure
failure.
Skip ESRCH errors instead of aborting with TBROK.
