Perf test case 84 'perf pipe recording and injection test'
sometime fails on s390, especially on z/VM virtual machines.

This is caused by a very short run time of workload

  # perf test -w noploop

which runs for 1 second. Occasionally this is not long
enough and the perf report has no samples for symbol noploop.

Fix this and enlarge the runtime for the perf work load
to 3 seconds. This ensures the symbol noploop is always
present. Since only s390 is affected, make this loop
architecture dependend.

Output before:

Applied to perf-tools-next, thanks!
