Hyper-V Dynamic Memory and VMBus misc small patches

This pull request contains two small patches to hv-balloon:
the first one replacing alloca() usage with g_malloc0() + g_autofree
and the second one adding additional declaration of a protocol message
struct with an optional field explicitly defined to avoid a Coverity
warning.

Also included is a VMBus patch to print a warning when it is enabled
without the recommended set of Hyper-V features (enlightenments) since
some Windows versions crash at boot in this case.

hv-balloon: define dm_hot_add_with_region to avoid Coverity warning

Since the presence of a hot add memory region is optional in hot add
request message it wasn't part of this message declaration
(struct dm_hot_add).

Instead, the code allocated such enlarged message by simply adding the
necessary size for this extra field to the size of basic hot add message
struct.

However, Coverity considers accessing this extra member to be
an out-of-bounds access, even thought the memory is actually there.

Fix this by adding an extended variant of this message that explicitly has
an additional union dm_mem_page_range at its end.

Hi,

- Reintroduce memory region size checks for memory devices; the removal
lead to some undesired side effects
- Preallocate memory of memory backends in selected configurations
asynchronously (so we preallocate concurrently), to speed up QEMU

Let's implement the get_min_alignment() callback for memory devices, and
copy for the device memory region the alignment of the host memory
region. This mimics what virtio-mem does, and allows for re-introducing
proper alignment checks for the memory region size (where we don't care

This commit was created with scripts/clean-includes:
./scripts/clean-includes --git hyperv hw/hyperv/*.[ch]

All .c should include qemu/osdep.h first. The script performs three
related cleanups:

* Ensure .c files include qemu/osdep.h first.
* Including it in a .h is redundant, since the .c already includes
it. Drop such inclusions.
* Likewise, including headers qemu/osdep.h includes is redundant.
Drop these, too.

This driver is like virtio-balloon on steroids for Windows guests:
it allows both changing the guest memory allocation via ballooning and
inserting pieces of extra RAM into it on demand from a provided memory
backend via Windows-native Hyper-V Dynamic Memory protocol.

* Preparatory patches to support empty memory devices and ones with
large alignment requirements.

* Revert of recently added "hw/virtio/virtio-pmem: Replace impossible
check by assertion" commit 5960f254dbb4 since this series makes this
situation possible again.

* Protocol definitions.

* Hyper-V DM protocol driver (hv-balloon) base (ballooning only).

* Hyper-V DM protocol driver (hv-balloon) hot-add support.

* qapi query-memory-devices support for the driver.

* qapi HV_BALLOON_STATUS_REPORT event.

* The relevant PC machine plumbing.

* New MAINTAINERS entry for the above.

Add Hyper-V Dynamic Memory Protocol driver (hv-balloon) hot-add support

One of advantages of using this protocol over ACPI-based PC DIMM hotplug is
that it allows hot-adding memory in much smaller granularity because the
ACPI DIMM slot limit does not apply.

In order to enable this functionality a new memory backend needs to be
created and provided to the driver via the "memdev" parameter.

This can be achieved by, for example, adding
"-object memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=32G" to the QEMU command line and
then instantiating the driver with "memdev=mem1" parameter.

The device will try to use multiple memslots to cover the memory backend in
order to reduce the size of metadata for the not-yet-hot-added part of the
memory backend.

Add Hyper-V Dynamic Memory Protocol driver (hv-balloon) base

This driver is like virtio-balloon on steroids: it allows both changing the
guest memory allocation via ballooning and (in the next patch) inserting
pieces of extra RAM into it on demand from a provided memory backend.

The actual resizing is done via ballooning interface (for example, via
the "balloon" HMP command).
This includes resizing the guest past its boot size - that is, hot-adding
additional memory in granularity limited only by the guest alignment
requirements, as provided by the next patch.

In contrast with ACPI DIMM hotplug where one can only request to unplug a
whole DIMM stick this driver allows removing memory from guest in single
page (4k) units via ballooning.

After a VM reboot the guest is back to its original (boot) size.

In the future, the guest boot memory size might be changed on reboot
instead, taking into account the effective size that VM had before that
reboot (much like Hyper-V does).

For performance reasons, the guest-released memory is tracked in a few
range trees, as a series of (start, count) ranges.
Each time a new page range is inserted into such tree its neighbors are
checked as candidates for possible merging with it.

Besides performance reasons, the Dynamic Memory protocol itself uses page
ranges as the data structure in its messages, so relevant pages need to be
merged into such ranges anyway.

One has to be careful when tracking the guest-released pages, since the
guest can maliciously report returning pages outside its current address
space, which later clash with the address range of newly added memory.
Similarly, the guest can report freeing the same page twice.

The above design results in much better ballooning performance than when
using virtio-balloon with the same guest: 230 GB / minute with this driver
versus 70 GB / minute with virtio-balloon.

During a ballooning operation most of time is spent waiting for the guest
to come up with newly freed page ranges, processing the received ranges on
the host side (in QEMU and KVM) is nearly instantaneous.

The unballoon operation is also pretty much instantaneous:
thanks to the merging of the ballooned out page ranges 200 GB of memory can
be returned to the guest in about 1 second.
With virtio-balloon this operation takes about 2.5 minutes.

These tests were done against a Windows Server 2019 guest running on a
Xeon E5-2699, after dirtying the whole memory inside guest before each
balloon operation.

Using a range tree instead of a bitmap to track the removed memory also
means that the solution scales well with the guest size: even a 1 TB range
takes just a few bytes of such metadata.

Since the required GTree operations aren't present in every Glib version
a check for them was added to the meson build script, together with new
"--enable-hv-balloon" and "--disable-hv-balloon" configure arguments.
If these GTree operations are missing in the system's Glib version this
driver will be skipped during QEMU build.

An optional "status-report=on" device parameter requests memory status
events from the guest (typically sent every second), which allow the host
to learn both the guest memory available and the guest memory in use
counts.

Following commits will add support for their external emission as
"HV_BALLOON_STATUS_REPORT" QMP events.

The driver is named hv-balloon since the Linux kernel client driver for
the Dynamic Memory Protocol is named as such and to follow the naming
pattern established by the virtio-balloon driver.
The whole protocol runs over Hyper-V VMBus.

The driver was tested against Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2016
and Windows Server 2019 guests and obeys the guest alignment requirements
reported to the host via DM_CAPABILITIES_REPORT message.
