As memory hotplug for arm64 by acpi is not ready on qemu, we choose
"probe" instead. You can refer to [1] to get more infomation about
"probe". The process of memory hotplug by "probe" in kata lies below:
firstly, add memory in qemu qmp; secondly, echo the start phyical address
of that memory to /sys/devices/system/memory/probe, which will be done
through kata-agent; thirdly, excute online op, then this newly added
memory is capable to be used.
All functions in this patch will be called after "echo" op. It can be
divided into two parts:
1. create page table for that memory;
2. add that memory to memblock.
In this patch, NUMA must be turned off for not all arm64 machine supports
NUMA.
As the newly added memory should be placed from 2T to 6T which is decided
in qemu and phyical address and virtual address will be one-one mapping
when create pgd for that memory, we must config ARM64_VA_BITS as 48.
Also some configs should be turned on, especially "ARCH_MEMORY_PROBE".
We have tested this patch integrated with another patch which performed
that echo op. It works well when using "-m" in command line when start a
kata-container on aarch64 machine.
This patch derived from Maciej Bielski. You can refer to [2] to get full
infomation about it.

We want to make sure Kata runs on latest stable kernels so that it
benefits from the latest features.
For instance, in case of Kata relying on NEMU hypervisor, the recent
kernel patches reworking the way timer calibration is handled are
solving some boot latency issues.

The Intel GPU support has been enabled in kata runtime, but the
guest kernel of kata container lacks the support of Intel GPU,
so this commit enables it as default in guest kernel.
CONFIG_DRM, CONFIG_DRM_I915 and CONFIG_DRM_I915_USERPTR are necessary.
Others are obtained by running command "make menuconfig" and selecting
the following options.
Device Drivers
---> Graphics support
---> Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 4.1.0 and higher DRI support)
Device Drivers
---> Graphics support
---> Intel 8xx/9xx/G3x/G4x/HD Graphics

As x86_64 has updated the guest kernel to enable EFI support for NEMU,
because OVMF that is used by NEMU is an EFI firmware. Although the
NEMU is not ready for Arm64, we'd better to enable EFI support in

Current kata containers can't run with kernel 4.1 built from current x86 config,
it will report error:
```
$ docker run -ti --runtime kata busybox sh
docker: Error response from daemon: oci runtime error: rpc error: code = Internal
desc = Could not run process: container_linux.go:348: starting container process
caused "process_linux.go:402: container init caused \"open /dev/ptmx: no such
file or directory\"".
```
This is caused by bogus devpts mount options. When run container with docker,
docker will assign a default devpts mount for every container which equals to
command below:
```
$ mount -t devpts -o nosuid,noexec,newinstance,ptmxmode=0666,mode=0620,gid=5 \
devpts /dev/pts
```
This requires kernel config `CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES=y` to work properly
under kernel-4.1, but this option is already removed from latest kernel.
It's better to add it back for support older kernel than current 4.14.

After upgrading the kernel to latest 4.14.x kernel, there are new
kconfig options that need users to select in install-kata-kernel.sh.
the prompt will block the script. We update this config file to give
user a good defined default config.
The new kconfig options are about, “Meltdown” and “Spectre”. So I
selected them to yes by default in this config file:

As the Developer-Guide[1] mentioned, the progress of installing
guest kernel images need a default kernel config file. But for
Arm64 architecture, this config file is missing.
In this patch, we provide a default Arm64 kernel config file for
Linux kernel 4.14.x.
