selftests/powerpc: Do not fail with reschedule
There are cases where the test is not expecting to have the transaction aborted, but, the test process might have been rescheduled, either in the OS level or by KVM (if it is running on a KVM guest machine). The process reschedule will cause a treclaim/recheckpoint which will cause the transaction to doom, aborting the transaction as soon as the process is rescheduled back to the CPU. This might cause the test to fail, but this is not a failure in essence. If that is the case, TEXASR[FC] is indicated with either TM_CAUSE_RESCHEDULE or TM_CAUSE_KVM_RESCHEDULE for KVM interruptions. In this scenario, ignore these two failures and avoid the whole test to return failure.
