Michael Anthony Knyszek 4d7bf41beb syscall: remove GOMAXPROCS change in TestExecHelper
TestExec and TestExecHelper check for a workaround of a particular OS
bug on darwin that's triggered more often via asynchronous preemption.

As part of this, the test sets up 100 CPU-bound goroutines, and sets
GOMAXPROCS to 50, sleeping for a little bit before calling Exec. Thus
far, this is fine because the scheduler runs the Execing goroutine in a
timely manner. However, CL 309869 will reduce the minimum heap size,
causing a GC to happen during the test.

On a 16 CPU machine, with GOMAXPROCS at 50, and 100 CPU-bound
goroutines, both the OS scheduler and the Go scheduler are severly
oversaturated. As a result, the test often (not always, but often) runs
out for the full lifetime of those 100 goroutines, which run for about 1
second.

The minimum heap size reduction is not necessary to trigger this; an
additional call to runtime.GC in the helper is also sufficient to
trigger this delay.

The delay on its own isn't great, since it adds a whole second to
all.bash on its own. However, it also seems correlated with other
subprocess tests in the syscall package, namely TestPassFD and
TestFcntlFlock. These tests fail in a fairly superficial way: the file
descriptor for the temporary directories they make gets clobbered, is
closed, or becomes stale.
