Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 5/8] KVM: selftests: Pass args to vCPU instead of
 using globals

This will only work if we don't spill parameters onto the stack and all
data we want to pass fit in registers. I've used multiple VCPUs in tests
before and stuck with the global syncing. I simply used arrays like this

 static my_type_t my_data[NR_VCPUS];

 static void guest_code(void)
 {
     int cpu = arch_get_cpu_id();
     
     // do something with my_data[cpu]
 }

 int main(void)
 {
     for (i = 0; i < NR_VCPUS; ++i) {
         // prepare my_data[i]
         sync_global_to_guest(vm, my_data[i]);
     }

     // run vcpus

    for (i = 0; i < NR_VCPUS; ++i) {
         sync_global_from_guest(vm, my_data[i]);
         // do something with my_data[i]
    }
 }

vcpu_args_set() is currently only implemented by x86, so that's a good
reason for this to be an x86-only test for now. Well, unless this is
switched back to using global sync.

Not sure why guest_memory_bytes was renamed to vcpu_wss. What is wss?
Working set size?
