Ian Rogers e293f4b1e5 perf test: Avoid python leak sanitizer test failures
Leak sanitizer will report memory leaks from python and the leak
sanitizer output causes tests to fail. For example:

  ```
  $ perf test 98 -v
   98: perf script tests:
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 1272962
  DB test
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.046 MB /tmp/perf-test-script.x0EktdCel8/perf.data (8 samples) ]

  ```

Disable leak sanitizer when running specific perf+python tests to
avoid this. This causes the tests to pass when run with leak
sanitizer.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
