From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Add a global variable, kvm_has_gmem_attributes, to make the result of checking for KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES available to all tests. kvm_has_gmem_attributes is true if guest_memfd tracks memory attributes, as opposed to VM-level tracking. This global variable is synced to the guest for testing convenience, to avoid introducing subtle bugs when host/guest state is desynced.
