max_guest_memory_test uses ucalls to sync with the host, but
it also resets the guest RIP back to its initial value in between
tests stages.
This makes the guest never reach the code which frees the ucall struct
and since a fixed pool of 512 ucall structs is used, the test starts
to fail when more that 256 vCPUs are used.
Fix that by replacing the manual register reset with a loop in
the guest code.

There is already an ASSERT_EQ macro in the file
tools/testing/selftests/kselftest_harness.h, so currently KVM selftests
can't include test_util.h from the KVM selftests together with that file.
Rename the macro in the KVM selftests to TEST_ASSERT_EQ to avoid the
problem - it is also more similar to the other macros in test_util.h that
way.

Many KVM selftests take command line arguments which are supposed to be
positive (>0) or non-negative (>=0). Some tests do these validation and
some missed adding the check.
Add atoi_positive() and atoi_non_negative() to validate inputs in
selftests before proceeding to use those values.

atoi() doesn't detect errors. There is no way to know that a 0 return
is correct conversion or due to an error.
Introduce atoi_paranoid() to detect errors and provide correct
conversion. Replace all atoi() calls with atoi_paranoid().

x86_page_size is an enum used to communicate the desired page size with
which to map a range of memory. Under the hood they just encode the
desired level at which to map the page. This ends up being clunky in a
few ways:
- The name suggests it encodes the size of the page rather than the
level.
- In other places in x86_64/processor.c we just use a raw int to encode
the level.
Simplify this by adopting the kernel style of PG_LEVEL_XX enums and pass
around raw ints when referring to the level. This makes the code easier
to understand since these macros are very common in KVM MMU code.

Add a selftest that enables populating a VM with the maximum amount of
guest memory allowed by the underlying architecture. Abuse KVM's
memslots by mapping a single host memory region into multiple memslots so
that the selftest doesn't require a system with terabytes of RAM.
Default to 512gb of guest memory, which isn't all that interesting, but
should work on all MMUs and doesn't take an exorbitant amount of memory
or time. E.g. testing with ~64tb of guest memory takes the better part
of an hour, and requires 200gb of memory for KVM's page tables when using
4kb pages.
To inflicit maximum abuse on KVM' MMU, default to 4kb pages (or whatever
the not-hugepage size is) in the backing store (memfd). Use memfd for
the host backing store to ensure that hugepages are guaranteed when
requested, and to give the user explicit control of the size of hugepage
being tested.
By default, spin up as many vCPUs as there are available to the selftest,
and distribute the work of dirtying each 4kb chunk of memory across all
vCPUs. Dirtying guest memory forces KVM to populate its page tables, and
also forces KVM to write back accessed/dirty information to struct page
when the guest memory is freed.
On x86, perform two passes with a MMU context reset between each pass to
coerce KVM into dropping all references to the MMU root, e.g. to emulate
a vCPU dropping the last reference. Perform both passes and all
rendezvous on all architectures in the hope that arm64 and s390x can gain
similar shenanigans in the future.
Measure and report the duration of each operation, which is helpful not
only to verify the test is working as intended, but also to easily
evaluate the performance differences different page sizes.
Provide command line options to limit the amount of guest memory, set the
size of each slot (i.e. of the host memory region), set the number of
vCPUs, and to enable usage of hugepages.
