After creating a child process with fork() in CAT test, if there is an error occurs or such as a SIGINT signal is received, the parent process will be terminated immediately, but the child process will not be killed and also umount_resctrlfs() will not be called.
Add a signal handler like other tests to kill child process, umount resctrlfs, cleanup result files, etc. if an error occurs in parent process. To use ctrlc_handler() of other tests to kill child process(bm_pid), using global bm_pid instead of local bm_pid.
Wait for child process to be killed if an error occurs in child process.

Why keep going at this point?
I tried this change but I was not able to trigger ctrlc_handler(). It seems that the handler is changed soon after (see cat_val()->run_fill_buf()) and ctrl_handler() (note the subtle name difference) is run instead when a SIGINT is received. The value of ctrl_handler() is not clear to me though, and it could even be argued that it is broken because it starts with free(startptr) and startptr would likely already be free'd at this point without resetting its value to NULL.
From what I understand ctrl_handler() and its installation from run_fill_buf() could be removed so that it does not override what is being done with this change. Otherwise, from what I can tell, this new handler will never run.
