I found it failed on machines with limited memory because 16M byte
per-cpu buffer is too big. The reason it added the option is not to
miss tracing data. Thus we can limit the data size by reducing the
function call depth instead of increasing the buffer size to handle the
whole data.
As it used the same option in the test_ftrace_trace() and it was able
to find the sleep function, it should work with the profile subcommand.
Get rid of other grep commands which might be affected by the depth
change.

On s390 the perf test case ftrace sometimes fails as follows:
# ./perf test ftrace
79: perf ftrace tests : FAILED!
#
The failure depends on the kernel .config file. Some configurations
always work fine, some do not. The ftrace profile test mostly fails,
because the ring buffer was not large enough, and some lines
(especially the interesting ones with nanosleep in it) where dropped.
To achieve success for all tested kernel configurations, enlarge
the buffer to store the traces completely without wrapping.
The default buffer size is too small for all kernel configurations.
Set the buffer size of for the ftrace profile test to 16 MB.
Output after:
# ./perf test ftrace
79: perf ftrace tests : Ok

During the parallel testing, I've noticed some ftrace test failures. It
seems the regex pattern checks 100 msec of nanosleep with the error
range of 10 msec. But sometimes it's affected by other processes and
resulted in more time in the syscall.
The following output shows that it took more than 120 msec and failed.
Let's update the regex pattern so that it can allow more drifts.

In 'perf ftrace profile sleep 0.1' we know that we'll have an specific
kernel function that will take a bit more than 0.1 seconds and will take
place just one time, so we can add a check for that so that we validate
more than just the presence of some functions in the profile.
