We recently realized the control queue is not meant to be handled by the
backend, that's why we move it out of vhost-user-net implementation.
Revert "vhost_user_net: Handle control queue"
This reverts commit af88ff1c49.

We thought we could move the control queue to the backend as it was
making some good sense. Unfortunately, doing so was a wrong design
decision as it broke the compatibility with OVS-DPDK backend.
This is why this commit moves the control queue back to the VMM side,
meaning an additional thread is being run for handling the communication
with the guest.

A lot of the VIRTIO reserved features should be supported or not by the
vhost-user backend. That means on the VMM side, these features should be
available, so that they don't get lost during the negotiation.

On FDT, VMM can allocate IRQ from 0 for devices.
But on ACPI, the lowest range below 32 has to be avoided.

This commit enables the PSCI (Power State Coordination Interface)
for the AArch64 platform, which allows the VMM to manage the power
status of the guest. Also, multiple vCPUs can be brought up using
PSCI.

This commit implements the IO Remapping Table (IORT) for AArch64.
The IORT is one of the required ACPI table for AArch64, since
it describes the GICv3ITS node.

This commit implements an AArch64-required ACPI table: Serial

This commit implements an AArch64-specific ACPI table: Generic
Timer Description Table (GTDT). The GTDT provides OSPM with
information about a system’s Generic Timers configuration.
The Generic Timer (GT) is a standard timer interface implemented
on ARM processor-based systems.

Simplified definition block of CPU's on AArch64. It is not complete yet.
Guest boots. But more is to do in future:
- Fix the error in ACPI definition blocks (seen in boot messages)
- Implement CPU hot-plug controller

The VIRTIO features should not be set before they are acked from the
guest. This code was only present to overcome a vhost crate limitation
that was expecting the VIRTIO features to be set before we could fetch
and set the protocol features.
The vhost crate has been recently fixed by removing the limitation,
therefore there's no need for this workaround in the Cloud Hypervisor
codebase anymore.

Everything that was shared in the net_util.rs file has been now moved to
the net_util crate. The only remaining bit was only used by the
virtio-net implementation, that is why this commit moves this code to
virtio-net, and since there's nothing left in net_util.rs, it can be
removed.

Since the net_util crate contains the common code needed for processing
the control queue, let's use it and remove the duplicate from inside the
virtio-devices crate.

Make sure the virtio features are set upon device activation. At the
time the device is activated, we know the guest acknowledged the
features, which mean it's safe to set them back to the backend.

In migration, vm object is created by new_from_migration with
NULL kvm clock. so vm.set_clock will not be called during vm resume.
If the guest using kvm-clock, the ticks will be stopped after migration.
As clock was already saved to snapshot, add a method to restore it before
vm resume in migration. after that, guest's kvm-clock works well.

Connecting a restored KVM clock vm will take long time, as clock
is NOT restored immediately after vm resume from snapshot.
this is because 9ce6c3b incorrectly remove vm_snapshot.clock, and
always pass None to new_from_memory_manager, which will result to
kvm_set_clock() never be called during restore from snapshot.
Fixes: 9ce6c3b

The vhost crate does not support the need_reply flag yet, meaning we
can't be sure the backend is properly setup before the guest goes on.
One can run in a race condition where the VMM enables the vring, but
never gets any acknowledgement, meaning it assumes everything went well
and finalize the virtio device activation. Once the device is seen as
ready by the guest, it keeps going by sending some messages through the
virtqueues. Problem is, if it took some time for the backend to enable
the queue, one of the backend thread might receive a kick from the guest
while the corresponding queue is not enabled. This leads to the loss of
the event as it is discarded because the queue is not enabled.
Until vhost crate allows for requests with ACK, the way to mitigate this
issue is by ignoring an event coming up on a queue that has not been
enabled.

The virtio features are negotiated and set at the time the device is
created, hence there's no need to set the features again while going
through the vhost-user setup that is performed upon queue activation.
