Subject: [PATCH] perf tests sw-clock: Mark the volatile tmp variable as
 __maybe_unused

As it is just used to waste some cycles, not being used as all, to
silence some compilers.

Noticed with gcc version 16.0.1 20260115 on fedora 44:

    tests/sw-clock.c: In function '__test__sw_clock_freq':
    tests/sw-clock.c:31:22: error: variable 'tmp' set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable=]
       31 |         volatile int tmp = 0;
          |                      ^~~
