Currently ptr_ring selftest is embedded within the virtio selftest, which involves some specific virtio operation, such as notifying and kicking.
As ptr_ring has been used by various subsystems, it deserves it's owner's selftest in order to benchmark different usecase of ptr_ring, such as page pool and pfifo_fast qdisc.
So add a simple application to benchmark ptr_ring performance. Currently two test mode is supported: Mode 0: Both enqueuing and dequeuing is done in a single thread, it is called simple test mode in the test app. Mode 1: Enqueuing and dequeuing is done in different thread concurrently, also known as SPSC(single-producer/ single-consumer) test.
The multi-producer/single-consumer test for pfifo_fast case is not added yet, which can be added if using CAS atomic operation to enable lockless multi-producer is proved to be better than using r->producer_lock.
Only supported on x86 and arm64 for now.

Why can't you simply reuse tools/virtio/ringtest?
The main reason is stated in the commit log: "Currently ptr_ring selftest is embedded within the virtio selftest, which involves some specific virtio operation, such as notifying and kicking.

More specificly in tools/virtio/ringtest/main.c and tools/virtio/ringtest/ptr_ring.c, there are a lot of operation related to virtio usecase, such as start_guest(), start_host(), poll_used(), notify() or kick() ....., so it makes more sense to add a generic selftest for ptr ring as it is not only used by virtio now.
Thanks
