Currently the memslot granularity for s390 VMs is 1M. Both the s390
core architecture and virtio-mem only support a 1M granularity for
guest memory.

Notwithstanding the official architectural limits, it can be beneficial
to support memslots with 4k granularity. With the new gmap code, this
is a quite simple change. This allows us to enable more existing
selftests and makes KVM on s390 more future proof.


v2->v3
* Remove more 1M-alignment #ifdefs in the kvm selftests.
* Do not remove the common tests from loongarch, since loongarch does
  not include the common tests by default.
* Opportunistically fix a potential NULL pointer dereference when
  memslots for UCONTROL guests are attempted to be removed (does not
  actually happen in practice).

v1->v2
* Fixed the first patch (thanks Christian)
