The benchmark command handling (-b) in resctrl selftests is overly complicated code. This series turns the benchmark command immutable to preserve it for all selftests and improves benchmark command related error handling.
This series also ends up removing the strcpy() calls which were pointed out earlier.
v2: - Added argument length check into patch 1/7 - Updated also -b line in help message. - Document -b argument related "algorithm" - Use asprintf() to convert defined constant int to string - Improved changelog texts - Added \n to ksft_exit_fail_msg() call messages. - Print DEFAULT_SPAN with %u instead of %zu to avoid need to cast it
