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.

[Restore CPUID_VMX, or vmx_set_nested_state breaks. - Paolo]

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.

Rename vcpu_memory_bytes to something with "percpu" in it
in order to be less ambiguous. Also make it global to
simplify things.

this series to dirty memory sparsely.

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.

Skylake machine:
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20m -i 100 -v 64

Much of the code in demand_paging_test can be reused by other, similar
multi-vCPU-memory-touching-perfromance-tests. Factor that common code
out for reuse.
No functional change expected.
