vmalloc: add test driver to analyse vmalloc allocator

This adds a new kernel module for analysis of vmalloc allocator.  It is
only enabled as a module.  There are two main reasons this module should
be used for: performance evaluation and stressing of vmalloc subsystem.

It consists of several test cases.  As of now there are 8.  The module
has five parameters we can specify to change its the behaviour.

1) run_test_mask - set of tests to be run

id: 1,   name: fix_size_alloc_test
id: 2,   name: full_fit_alloc_test
id: 4,   name: long_busy_list_alloc_test
id: 8,   name: random_size_alloc_test
id: 16,  name: fix_align_alloc_test
id: 32,  name: random_size_align_alloc_test
id: 64,  name: align_shift_alloc_test
id: 128, name: pcpu_alloc_test

By default all tests are in run test mask.  If you want to select some
specific tests it is possible to pass the mask.  For example for first,
second and fourth tests we go 11 value.

2) test_repeat_count - how many times each test should be repeated
By default it is one time per test. It is possible to pass any number.
As high the value is the test duration gets increased.

3) test_loop_count - internal test loop counter. By default it is set
to 1000000.

4) single_cpu_test - use one CPU to run the tests
By default this parameter is set to false. It means that all online
CPUs execute tests. By setting it to 1, the tests are executed by
first online CPU only.

5) sequential_test_order - run tests in sequential order
By default this parameter is set to false. It means that before running
tests the order is shuffled. It is possible to make it sequential, just
set it to 1.

Performance analysis:
In order to evaluate performance of vmalloc allocations, usually it
makes sense to use only one CPU that runs tests, use sequential order,
number of repeat tests can be different as well as set of test mask.

For example if we want to run all tests, to use one CPU and repeat each
test 3 times. Insert the module passing following parameters:

single_cpu_test=1 sequential_test_order=1 test_repeat_count=3

with following output:

<snip>

All test took CPU0=192945605995 cycles
<snip>

The align_shift_alloc_test is expected to be failed.

Stressing:
In order to stress the vmalloc subsystem we run all available test cases
on all available CPUs simultaneously. In order to prevent constant behaviour
pattern, the test cases array is shuffled by default to randomize the order
of test execution.

For example if we want to run all tests(default), use all online CPUs(default)
with shuffled order(default) and to repeat each test 30 times. The command
would be like:

modprobe vmalloc_test test_repeat_count=30

Expected results are the system is alive, there are no any BUG_ONs or Kernel
Panics the tests are completed, no memory leaks.
