Enabling CONFIG_HYPERV in the Linux Kernel allows
guest to use hyperv clock source. This changes
improves guest performance. Without this changes
we saw slowness in the guest on MSHV.

Since using the VIRTIO configuration to expose the virtual IOMMU
topology has been deprecated, the virtio-iommu implementation must be
updated.
In order to follow the latest patchset that is about to be merged in the
upstream Linux kernel, it must rely on ACPI, and in particular the newly
introduced VIOT table to expose the information about the list of PCI
devices attached to the virtual IOMMU.

The Dockerfile is extended with some new instructions to install the
OVS-DPDK packages. This will be useful for writing new integration tests
and make sure OVS-DPDK is working properly.
This also updates the Rust toolchain from 1.51.0 to 1.52.1.

By fixing the Dockerfile, we have now finalized the automated generation
of the Docker images for both architectures (amd64 and arm64).
Fixes#953
Signed-off-by: Sebastien Boeuf <sebastien.boeuf@intel.com>
In order to support both amd64 and arm64, we rely on the TARGETARCH
variable that is passed from the docker buildx command, based on the
platform used to build the container image.
There is no way to rely directly on $(uname -m) to assign a variable
with the correct x86_64 or aarch64 values we're looking for. Both ENV
and ARG don't evaluate the command, which means they see it as a simple
string. Using RUN is the only way to evaluate a command.

Removing the ISA DMA configurations prevents the kernel from accessing
the port I/O 0x87, which was generating the following warning:
WARN:vmm/src/cpu.rs:378 -- Guest PIO read to unregistered address 0x87
Removing the TELCLOCK configuration prevents the kernel from accessing
the port I/O reserved for the memory manager, which was causing the
following warning:

Updating the kernel from 5.6-rc4 to 5.8-rc4 allows us to remove the

virtio-fs patches.

This update of Dockerfile will add support to the AArch64
integration tests and musl building, including:

On AArch64, `setcap` binary should be installed via `libcap2-bin`.
This binary is needed in the integration test.
2. Related support for the cloud-hypervisor binary building by
