The fill_buf code prevents compiler optimizating the entire read loop away by writing the final value of the variable into a file. While it achieves the goal, writing into a file requires significant amount of work within the innermost test loop and also error handling. A simpler approach is to take advantage of volatile. Writing through a pointer to a volatile variable is enough to prevent compiler from optimizing the write away, and therefore compiler cannot remove the read loop either. Add a volatile 'value_sink' into resctrl_tests.c and make fill_buf to write into it. As a result, the error handling in fill_buf.c can be simplified.
