David Matlack d721f52e31 vfio: selftests: Add vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test 
Add a new VFIO selftest for measuring the time it takes to run
vfio_pci_device_init() in parallel for one or more devices.

This test serves as manual regression test for the performance
improvement of commit e908f58b6b ("vfio/pci: Separate SR-IOV VF
dev_set"). For example, when running this test with 64 VFs under the
same PF:

Before:

  $ ./vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test -r vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test.iommufd.init 0000:1a:00.0 0000:1a:00.1 ...
  ...
  Wall time: 6.653234463s
  Min init time (per device): 0.101215344s
  Max init time (per device): 6.652755941s
  Avg init time (per device): 3.377609608s

After:

  $ ./vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test -r vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test.iommufd.init 0000:1a:00.0 0000:1a:00.1 ...
  ...
  Wall time: 0.122978332s
  Min init time (per device): 0.108121915s
  Max init time (per device): 0.122762761s
  Avg init time (per device): 0.113816748s

This test does not make any assertions about performance, since any such
assertion is likely to be flaky due to system differences and random
noise. However this test can be fed into automation to detect
regressions, and can be used by developers in the future to measure
performance optimizations.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
