If we're not running fsstress as the scrub exerciser, don't set
_FSSTRESS_PID because the _kill_fsstress call in the cleanup function
will think that it has to wait for a nonexistant fsstress process.
This fixes the problem of xfs/565 runtime increasing from 30s to 800s
because it tries to kill a nonexistent "565.fsstress" process and then
waits for the fsx loop control process, which hasn't been sent any
signals.
