Subject: [PATCH net-next 08/12] selftests/vsock: identify and execute tests
 that can re-use VM

From: Bobby Eshleman <bobbyeshleman@...a.com>

In preparation for future patches that introduce tests that cannot
re-use the same VM, add functions to identify those that *can* re-use a
VM.

By continuing to re-use the same VM for these tests we can save time by
avoiding the delay of booting a VM for every test.
