It seems the vdpa_sim_block isn't behaving properly after the vhost
device is closed, as it sometimes returns EBUSY when we try to open it
again. The easiest way to deal with this issue is by simplifying the
integration test, avoid to plug the same device after it's been
unplugged.

This commit unifies the custom linux kernel build in x86, Arm, and
performance metrics to the same function. Therefore, when bumping
the kernel version, we can make sure we only need to make the change
in one place.

With the addition of the amx feature, add a new build workflow to

AMX is an x86 extension adding hardware units for matrix
operations (int and float dot products). The goal of the extension is
to provide performance enhancements for these common operations.
On Linux, AMX requires requesting the permission from the kernel prior
to use. Guests wanting to make use of the feature need to have the
request made prior to starting the vm.
This change then adds the first --cpus features option amx that when
passed will enable AMX usage for guests (needs a 5.17+ kernel) or
exits with failure.
The activation is done in the CpuManager of the VMM thread as it
allows migration and snapshot/restore to work fairly painlessly for
AMX enabled workloads.

actually call into the dedicated function.

Disable the DAX feature from the virtio-fs implementation as the feature
is still not stable. The feature is deprecated, meaning the 'dax'
parameter will be removed in about 2 releases cycles.
In the meantime, the parameter value is ignored and forced to be
disabled.

The test is sporadically failing whenever we try to hotplug the vDPA
device we've just unplugged. This is causing the kernel to complain with
EBUSY because the device hasn't been released yet. This is happening
because the CI system is under very high load, therefore taking quite
some time to the host to update the state of this device.
The easy way to fix such issue is by increasing the sleep time between
the unplug and the replug.

The file descriptor provided to fs_slave_map() and fs_slave_io() is
passed as a AsRawFd trait, meaning the caller owns it. For that reason,
there's no need for these functions to close the file descriptor as it
will be closed later on anyway.

To emulate debug I/O port on arm64, we need trap from guest to VMM.
Generally, there are 3 ways to go:
1) execute a privilege intruction like "wfi";
2) access a system register;
3) access device MMIO region;
However, 1) and 2) often handled in kvm, thus 3) it's the choice.
There maybe lots of repeated work and enlarge the size of clh to develop
a new device, so it's better to reuse the current device. Luckily, I
find that pl011 is the eariest device initialized in kernel and, there
is reserved region in it which we can reuse for emulating debug I/O.

Previously it was not possible to enable vIOMMU for a virtio device.
However with the ability to place an entire PCI segment behind the

behind the IOMMU.

As Linux kernel, edk2, virtiofd, SPDK are all build from source, we
need to find a way to reduce the number of source code build.
To address this issue, this commit adds a stage that touching a
".built" file to each repo of the source code after a successfully
build. By checking if the ".built" file exists, we can determine
if there is already an old build. Since the source code repo will
be removed and cloned again when we bump the repo hash, the CI will
rebuild the repo.
