KVM: X86: Implement ring-based dirty memory tracking

This patch is heavily based on previous work from Lei Cao
<lei.cao@stratus.com> and Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>. [1]

KVM currently uses large bitmaps to track dirty memory.  These bitmaps
are copied to userspace when userspace queries KVM for its dirty page
information.  The use of bitmaps is mostly sufficient for live
migration, as large parts of memory are be dirtied from one log-dirty
pass to another.  However, in a checkpointing system, the number of
dirty pages is small and in fact it is often bounded---the VM is
paused when it has dirtied a pre-defined number of pages. Traversing a
large, sparsely populated bitmap to find set bits is time-consuming,
as is copying the bitmap to user-space.

A similar issue will be there for live migration when the guest memory
is huge while the page dirty procedure is trivial.  In that case for
each dirty sync we need to pull the whole dirty bitmap to userspace
and analyse every bit even if it's mostly zeros.

The preferred data structure for above scenarios is a dense list of
guest frame numbers (GFN).  This patch series stores the dirty list in
kernel memory that can be memory mapped into userspace to allow speedy
harvesting.

This patch enables dirty ring for X86 only.  However it should be
easily extended to other archs as well.

+8.29 KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING
+---------------------------
+
+:Architectures: x86
+:Parameters: args[0] - size of the dirty log ring
+
+KVM is capable of tracking dirty memory using ring buffers that are
+mmaped into userspace; there is one dirty ring per vcpu.
+
+The dirty ring is available to userspace as an array of
+``struct kvm_dirty_gfn``.  Each dirty entry it's defined as::
+
+  struct kvm_dirty_gfn {
+          __u32 flags;
+          __u32 slot; /* as_id | slot_id */
+          __u64 offset;
+  };
+
+The following values are defined for the flags field to define the
+current state of the entry::
+
+  #define KVM_DIRTY_GFN_F_DIRTY           BIT(0)
+  #define KVM_DIRTY_GFN_F_RESET           BIT(1)
+  #define KVM_DIRTY_GFN_F_MASK            0x3
+
+Userspace should call KVM_ENABLE_CAP ioctl right after KVM_CREATE_VM
+ioctl to enable this capability for the new guest and set the size of
+the rings.  Enabling the capability is only allowed before creating any
+vCPU, and the size of the ring must be a power of two.  The larger the
+ring buffer, the less likely the ring is full and the VM is forced to
+exit to userspace. The optimal size depends on the workload, but it is
+recommended that it be at least 64 KiB (4096 entries).
+
+Just like for dirty page bitmaps, the buffer tracks writes to
+all user memory regions for which the KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES flag was
+set in KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION.  Once a memory region is registered
+with the flag set, userspace can start harvesting dirty pages from the
+ring buffer.
+
+An entry in the ring buffer can be unused (flag bits ``00``),
+dirty (flag bits ``01``) or harvested (flag bits ``1X``).  The
+state machine for the entry is as follows::
+
+          dirtied         harvested        reset
+     00 -----------> 01 -------------> 1X -------+
+      ^                                          |
+      |                                          |
+      +------------------------------------------+
+
+To harvest the dirty pages, userspace accesses the mmaped ring buffer
+to read the dirty GFNs.  If the flags has the DIRTY bit set (at this stage
+the RESET bit must be cleared), then it means this GFN is a dirty GFN.
+The userspace should harvest this GFN and mark the flags from state
+``01b`` to ``1Xb`` (bit 0 will be ignored by KVM, but bit 1 must be set
+to show that this GFN is harvested and waiting for a reset), and move
+on to the next GFN.  The userspace should continue to do this until the
+flags of a GFN have the DIRTY bit cleared, meaning that it has harvested
+all the dirty GFNs that were available.
+
+It's not necessary for userspace to harvest the all dirty GFNs at once.
+However it must collect the dirty GFNs in sequence, i.e., the userspace
+program cannot skip one dirty GFN to collect the one next to it.
+
+After processing one or more entries in the ring buffer, userspace
+calls the VM ioctl KVM_RESET_DIRTY_RINGS to notify the kernel about
+it, so that the kernel will reprotect those collected GFNs.
+Therefore, the ioctl must be called *before* reading the content of
+the dirty pages.
+
+The dirty ring can get full.  When it happens, the KVM_RUN of the
+vcpu will return with exit reason KVM_EXIT_DIRTY_LOG_FULL.
+
+The dirty ring interface has a major difference comparing to the
+KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG interface in that, when reading the dirty ring from
+userspace, it's still possible that the kernel has not yet flushed the
+processor's dirty page buffers into the kernel buffer (with dirty bitmaps, the
+flushing is done by the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl).  To achieve that, one
+needs to kick the vcpu out of KVM_RUN using a signal.  The resulting
+vmexit ensures that all dirty GFNs are flushed to the dirty rings.
