Track vCPUs by their 'struct kvm_vcpu' object, and stop assuming that a
vCPU's ID is the same as its index when referencing a vCPU's metadata.

Add an option to dirty_log_perf_test that configures the vCPUs to run in
L2 instead of L1. This makes it possible to benchmark the dirty logging
performance of nested virtualization, which is particularly interesting
because KVM must shadow L1's EPT/NPT tables.
For now this support only works on x86_64 CPUs with VMX. Otherwise
passing -n results in the test being skipped.

Move vCPU thread creation and joining to common helper functions. This
is in preparation for the next commit which ensures that all vCPU
threads are fully created before entering guest mode on any one
vCPU.
No functional change intended.

Copy perf_test_args to the guest during VM creation instead of relying on
the caller to do so at their leisure. Ideally, tests wouldn't even be
able to modify perf_test_args, i.e. they would have no motivation to do
the sync, but enforcing that is arguably a net negative for readability.
No functional change intended.
[Set wr_fract=1 by default and add helper to override it since the new
access_tracking_perf_test needs to set it dynamically.]

Fill the per-vCPU args when creating the perf_test VM instead of having
the caller do so. This helps ensure that any adjustments to the number
of pages (and thus vcpu_memory_bytes) are reflected in the per-VM args.
Automatically filling the per-vCPU args will also allow a future patch
to do the sync to the guest during creation.

Remove perf_test_args.host_page_size and instead use getpagesize() so
that it's somewhat obvious that, for tests that care about the host page
size, they care about the system page size, not the hardware page size,
e.g. that the logic is unchanged if hugepages are in play.
No functional change intended.

Move the per-VM GPA into perf_test_args instead of storing it as a
separate global variable. It's not obvious that guest_test_phys_mem
holds a GPA, nor that it's connected/coupled with per_vcpu->gpa.

Introduce a new option to dirty_log_perf_test: -x number_of_slots. This
causes the test to attempt to split the region of memory into the given
number of slots. If the region cannot be evenly divided, the test will
fail.
This allows testing with more than one slot and therefore measure how
performance scales with the number of memslots.

Add an option to overlap the ranges of memory each vCPU accesses instead
of partitioning them. This option will increase the probability of
multiple vCPUs faulting on the same page at the same time, and causing
interesting races, if there are bugs in the page fault handler or
elsewhere in the kernel.

It's not conventional C to put non-inline functions in header
files. Create a source file for the functions instead. Also
reduce the amount of globals and rename the functions to
something less generic.

Almost all tests do this anyway and the ones that don't don't
appear to care. Only vmx_set_nested_state_test assumes that
a feature (VMX) is disabled until later setting the supported
CPUIDs. It's better to disable that explicitly anyway.

The dirty log perf test will time verious dirty logging operations
(enabling dirty logging, dirtying memory, getting the dirty log,
clearing the dirty log, and disabling dirty logging) in order to
quantify dirty logging performance. This test can be used to inform
future performance improvements to KVM's dirty logging infrastructure.
This series was tested by running the following invocations on an Intel
Skylake machine:
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20m -i 100 -v 64
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20g -i 5 -v 4
dirty_log_perf_test -b 4g -i 5 -v 32
demand_paging_test -b 20m -v 64
demand_paging_test -b 20g -v 4
demand_paging_test -b 4g -v 32
All behaved as expected.

Rounding the address the guest writes to a host page boundary
will only have an effect if the host page size is larger than the guest
page size, but in that case the guest write would still go to the same
host page. There's no reason to round the address down, so remove the
rounding to simplify the demand paging test.
