[PATCH 10/20] KVM: selftests: Keep dirty_log_test vCPU in guest until it needs to stop

[Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>]

In the dirty_log_test guest code, exit to userspace only when the vCPU is
explicitly told to stop.  Periodically exiting just to check if a flag has
been set is unnecessary, weirdly complex, and wastes time handling exits
that could be used to dirty memory.

Opportunistically convert 'i' to a uint64_t to guard against the unlikely
scenario that guest_num_pages exceeds the storage of an int.
