Test KVM dirty logging functionality.
The test creates a standalone memory slot to test tracking the dirty
pages since we can't really write to the default memory slot which still
contains the guest ELF image.
We have two threads running during the test:
(1) the vcpu thread continuously dirties random guest pages by writting
a iteration number to the first 8 bytes of the page
(2) the host thread continuously fetches dirty logs for the testing
memory region and verify each single bit of the dirty bitmap by
checking against the values written onto the page
Note that since the guest cannot calls the general userspace APIs like
random(), it depends on the host to provide random numbers for the
page indexes to dirty.

This information can be used to decide the size of the default memory
slot, which will need to cover the extra pages with page tables.

Let the kvm selftest include the tools headers, then we can start to use
things there like bitmap operations.

Most of the tests are using the same way to do guest to host sync but
the code is mostly duplicated. Generalize the guest port macros into
the common header file and use it in different tests.
Meanwhile provide "struct guest_args" and a helper "guest_args_read()"
to hide the register details when playing with these port operations on
RDI and RSI.

The test calls KVM_RUN repeatedly, and creates an entirely new VM with the
old memory and vCPU state on every exit to userspace. The kvm_util API is
expanded with two functions that manage the lifetime of a kvm_vm struct:
the first closes the file descriptors and leaves the memory allocated,
and the second opens the file descriptors and reuses the memory from
the previous incarnation of the kvm_vm struct.
For now the test is very basic, as it does not test for example XSAVE or
vCPU events. However, it will test nested virtualization state starting
with the next patch.

The selftests were not munmap-ing the kvm_run area from the vcpu file descriptor.
The result was that kvm_vcpu_release was not called and a reference was left in the
parent "struct kvm". Ultimately this was visible in the upcoming state save/restore
test as an error when KVM attempted to create a duplicate debugfs entry.

The allocation of the VMXON and VMCS is currently done twice, in
lib/vmx.c and in vmx_tsc_adjust_test.c. Reorganize the code to
provide a cleaner and easier to use API to the tests. lib/vmx.c
now does the complete setup of the VMX data structures, but does not
create the VM or set CPUID. This has to be done by the caller.

The GDT and the TSS base were left to zero, and this has interesting effects
when the TSS descriptor is later read to set up a VMCS's TR_BASE. Basically
it worked by chance, and this patch fixes it by setting up all the protected
mode data structures properly.
Because the GDT and TSS addresses are virtual, the page tables now always
exist at the time of vcpu setup.

When kvm test is skipped because of unmet dependencies and/or unsupported
configuration, it exits with error which is treated as a fail by the
Kselftest framework. This leads to false negative result even when the test
could not be run.
Change it to return kselftest skip code when a test gets skipped to clearly
report that the test could not be run.
Change it to use ksft_exit_skip() when the test is skipped. In addition,
refine test_assert() message to include strerror() string and add explicit
check for EACCES to cleary identify when test doesn't run when access is
denied to resources required e.g: open /dev/kvm failed, rc: -1 errno: 13

Right now, skipped tests are returning a failure exit code if /dev/kvm does
not exists. Consistently return a zero status code so that various scripts
over the interwebs do not complain. Also return a zero status code if
the KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS capability is not present, and hardcode in the
test the register kinds that are covered (rather than just using whatever
value of KVM_SYNC_X86_VALID_FIELDS is provided by the kernel headers).

The test checks the behavior of setting MSR_IA32_TSC in a nested guest,
and the TSC_OFFSET VMCS field in general. It also introduces the testing
infrastructure for Intel nested virtualization.
