vhost: access vq metadata through kernel virtual address

It was noticed that the copy_to/from_user() friends that was used to
access virtqueue metdata tends to be very expensive for dataplane
implementation like vhost since it involves lots of software checks,
speculation barriers, hardware feature toggling (e.g SMAP). The
extra cost will be more obvious when transferring small packets since
the time spent on metadata accessing become more significant.

This patch tries to eliminate those overheads by accessing them
through direct mapping of those pages. Invalidation callbacks is
implemented for co-operation with general VM management (swap, KSM,
THP or NUMA balancing). We will try to get the direct mapping of vq
metadata before each round of packet processing if it doesn't
exist. If we fail, we will simplely fallback to copy_to/from_user()
friends.

This invalidation and direct mapping access are synchronized through
spinlock and RCU. All matedata accessing through direct map is
protected by RCU, and the setup or invalidation are done under
spinlock.

This method might does not work for high mem page which requires
temporary mapping so we just fallback to normal
copy_to/from_user() and may not for arch that has virtual tagged cache
since extra cache flushing is needed to eliminate the alias. This will
result complex logic and bad performance. For those archs, this patch
simply go for copy_to/from_user() friends. This is done by ruling out
kernel mapping codes through ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE.

Note that this is only done when device IOTLB is not enabled. We
could use similar method to optimize IOTLB in the future.

Tests shows at most about 23% improvement on TX PPS when using
virtio-user + vhost_net + xdp1 + TAP on 2.6GHz Broadwell:
