Currently gvt dmesg is so heavy at drm.debug=0x2 that guest and
host almost couldn't run on xengt.
This patch transfer these repeated messages into trace, so dmesg
is light at drm.debug=0x2, and user could get the target message through
trace event and trace filter.

The gvt:gvt_command trace involve unnecessary overhead even this trace is
not enabled. We need improve it.
The kernel trace infrastructure provide a full api to define a trace event.
We should leverage them if possible. And one important thing is that a trace
point should store raw data but not format string.
This patch include two part work:
1) Refactor the gvt_command trace definition, including:
o only store raw trace data.
o use __dynamic_array() to declare a variable size buffer.
o use __print_array() to format raw cmd data.
o rename vm_id as vgpu_id.
2) Improve the trace invoking, including:
o remove the cycles calculation for handler. We can get this data
by any perf tool.
o do not make a backup for raw cmd data which just doesn't make sense.
With this patch, this trace has no overhead if it is not enabled. And we are
trace style now.
The final output example:
gvt workload 0-211 [000] ...1 120.555964: gvt_command: vgpu1 ring 0: buf_type 0, ip_gma e161e880, raw cmd {0x4000000}
gvt workload 0-211 [000] ...1 120.556014: gvt_command: vgpu1 ring 0: buf_type 0, ip_gma e161e884, raw cmd {0x7a000004,0x1004000,0xe1511018,0x0,0x7d,0x0}

The vGPU graphics memory emulation framework is responsible for graphics
memory table virtualization. Under virtualization environment, a VM will
populate the page table entry with guest page frame number(GPFN/GFN), while
HW needs a page table filled with MFN(Machine frame number). The
relationship between GFN and MFN(Machine frame number) is managed by
hypervisor, while GEN HW doesn't have such knowledge to translate a GFN.
To solve this gap, shadow GGTT/PPGTT page table is introdcued.
For GGTT, the GFN inside the guest GGTT page table entry will be translated
into MFN and written into physical GTT MMIO registers when guest write
virtual GTT MMIO registers.
For PPGTT, a shadow PPGTT page table will be created and write-protected
translated from guest PPGTT page table. And the shadow page table root
pointers will be written into the shadow context after a guest workload
is shadowed.
vGPU graphics memory emulation framework consists:
- Per-GEN HW platform page table entry bits extract/de-extract routines.
- GTT MMIO register emulation handlers, which will call hypercall to do
GFN->MFN translation when guest write GTT MMIO register
- PPGTT shadow page table routines, e.g. shadow create/destroy/out-of-sync
