Add a regression test for the bug fixed by commit 92f6d4130497 ("KVM:
Fix coalesced_mmio_has_room() to avoid premature userspace exit"), and
then do additional clean up on the offending KVM code. I wrote the test
mainly so that I was confident I actually understood Ilias' fix.
This applies on the aforementioned commit, which is sitting in
kvm-x86/generic.
Fully tested on x86 and arm64, compile tested on RISC-V.
Ilias, I deliberately didn't include your Reviewed-by for the selftest, just
in case I botched something during the (minor, in theory) rework.
v2:
- Collect a review. [Ilias]
- Fix a typo in patch 2's changelog. [Ilias]
- Rework the selftest to containerize the coalesced I/O ring and its state,
to hopefully make it easier to extend the test to validate using a ring
other than KVM's built-in default. [Ilias]
