[PATCH 4/5] selftests/resctrl: Kill the child process before exiting the parent process if an exception occurs

[Shaopeng Tan]

After creating a child process with fork() in CAT test, if there is
an exception occurs, the parent process will be terminated immediately,
but the child process will not be killed and umount_resctrlfs() will not
be called.

When fork() is used in CMT/MBA/MBM tests.
If an exception occurs, before parent process exiting,
the child process is killed and umount_resctrlfs() is called.

Kill the child process before exiting the parent process
if an exception occurs in CAT test, like in CMT/MBA/MBM tests.
