ef1b144d23 tools/virtio/ringtest: fix run-on-all.sh to work without /dev/cpu
/dev/cpu is only available on x86 with certain modules (e.g. msr) enabled.
Using lscpu to get processors count is more portable.

481eaec37e tools/virtio: add ringtest utilities
This adds micro-benchmarks useful for tuning virtio ring layouts.
Three layouts are currently implemented:

- virtio 0.9 compatible one
- an experimental extension bypassing the ring index, polling ring
  itself instead
- an experimental extension bypassing avail and used ring completely

Typical use:

sh run-on-all.sh perf stat -r 10 --log-fd 1 -- ./ring

It doesn't depend on the kernel directly, but it's handy
to have as much virtio stuff as possible in one tree.
