[PATCH v2 2/5] KVM: arm64: Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking

This enables the ring-based dirty memory tracking on ARM64. The
feature is configured by CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_DIRTY_RING, detected and
enabled by KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING. A ring buffer is created on every
VCPU when the feature is enabled. Each entry in the ring buffer is
described by 'struct kvm_dirty_gfn'.
A ring buffer entry is pushed when a page becomes dirty on host,
and pulled by userspace after the ring buffer is mapped at physical
page offset KVM_DIRTY_LOG_PAGE_OFFSET. The specific VCPU is enforced
to exit if its ring buffer becomes softly full. Besides, the ring
buffer can be reset by ioctl command KVM_RESET_DIRTY_RINGS to release
those pulled ring buffer entries.
