>The measure_perf function should be executed after worker threads
>exit
>to collect correct perf data. Otherwise, while workers are running, the
>main thread may get incomplete data from workers.
>
>In the meanwhile, remove unnecessary barrier in the test.
>For signal variables "ldata.done" and "ldata.start", no operations
>should keep the order that being executed after them. So the wmb after
>them can be moved.

>Fixes: 16a277a24c9f ("test/trace: add performance test cases")
