[PATCH 0/3] KVM: arm64: selftests: Add edge cases tests for the arch timer

[Ricardo Koller <ricarkol@google.com>]

Add a new selftests that validates some edge cases related to the virtual
arch-timer, for example:
- timers above the max TVAL value.
- timers across counter roll-overs.
- moving counters ahead and behind pending timers.
- having the same timer condition firing multiple times.

The tests run while checking the state of the IRQs (e.g., pending when they
are supposed to be) and stressing things a bit by waiting for interrupts
while: re-scheduling the vcpu (with sched_yield()), by migrating the vcpu
between cores, or by sleeping in userspace (with usleep()).

The first commit adds a timer utility function.  The second commit adds
some sanity checks and basic tests for the timer. The third commit adds
the actual edge case tests (like forcing rollovers).
