The initial value of 5% chosen for the maximum allowed percentage difference between resctrl mbm value and IMC mbm value in commit 06bd03a57f8c ("selftests/resctrl: Fix MBA/MBM results reporting format") was "randomly chosen value" (as admitted by the changelog). When running tests in our lab across a large number platforms, 5% difference upper bound for success seems a bit on the low side for the MBA and MBM tests. Some platforms produce outliers that are slightly above that, typically 6-7%, which leads MBA/MBM test frequently failing. Replace the "randomly chosen value" with a success bound that is based on those measurements across large number of platforms by relaxing the MBA/MBM success bound to 8%. The relaxed bound removes the failures due the frequent outliers.
