callers of vhost_kvzalloc() expect the same behaviour on
allocation error as from kmalloc/vmalloc i.e. NULL return
value. So just return vzmalloc() returned value instead of
returning ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM)

While reviewing vhost log code, I found out that log_file is never
set. Note: I haven't tested the change (QEMU doesn't use LOG_FD yet).

it became possible to use a bigger amount of memory
slots, which is used by memory hotplug for
registering hotplugged memory.
However QEMU crashes if it's used with more than ~60
pc-dimm devices and vhost-net enabled since host kernel
in module vhost-net refuses to accept more than 64
memory regions.

Allow to tweak limit via max_mem_regions module paramemter
with default value set to 64 slots.

with large number of memory regions we could end up with
high order allocations and kmalloc could fail if
host is under memory pressure.
Considering that memory regions array is used on hot path
try harder to allocate using kmalloc and if it fails resort
to vmalloc.
It's still better than just failing vhost_set_memory() and
causing guest crash due to it when a new memory hotplugged
to guest.

I'll still look at QEMU side solution to reduce amount of
memory regions it feeds to vhost to make things even better,
but it doesn't hurt for kernel to behave smarter and don't
crash older QEMU's which could use large amount of memory
regions.

For default region layouts performance stays the same
as linear search i.e. it takes around 210ns average for
translate_desc() that inlines find_region().

But it scales better with larger amount of regions,
235ns BS vs 300ns LS with 55 memory regions
and it will be about the same values when allowed number
of slots is increased to 509 like it has been done in kvm.

This patch brings cross-endian support to vhost when used to implement
legacy virtio devices. Since it is a relatively rare situation, the
feature availability is controlled by a kernel config option (not set
by default).

The vq->is_le boolean field is added to cache the endianness to be
used for ring accesses. It defaults to native endian, as expected
by legacy virtio devices. When the ring gets active, we force little
endian if the device is modern. When the ring is deactivated, we
revert to the native endian default.

If cross-endian was compiled in, a vq->user_be boolean field is added
so that userspace may request a specific endianness. This field is
used to override the default when activating the ring of a legacy
device. It has no effect on modern devices.

virtio 1.0 only requires used address to be 4 byte aligned,
vhost required 8 bytes (size of vring_used_elem).
Fix up vhost to match that.

Additionally, while vhost correctly requires 8 byte
alignment for log, it's unconnected to used ring:
it's a consequence that log has u64 entries.
Tweak code to make that clearer.

Most places in vhost can use __get/__put_user rather than
get/put_user since addresses are pre-validated.
This should be good for performance, but this also
will help make code sparse-clean: get/put_user macros
don't play well with __virtioXX bitwise tags.
Switch to get/put_user to __ variants everywhere in vhost.
There's one exception - for consistency switch that
as well, and add an explicit access_ok check.
