This test case is extremely slow, taking around a minute compared to most of the other DSCR tests taking a second at most. Perf shows most time is spent by the kernel switching to each CPU it reads in /sys/devices/system/cpu. This switching is an unavoidable consequnce of reading all the .../cpuN/dscr values. Remove the outer iteration loop from this test case, reducing the reads from 1600 to 16. This still updates the DSCR 16 times and verifies on every CPU each time, so I do not expect the lower coverage to be meaningful. The speedup is significant: back down to ~1 second like the other tests.

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 Restructured Text 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.
