On arm and arm64, kvm-unit-tests uses the QEMU chr-testdev device to shut
down the virtual machine at the end of a test. The function
psci_system_off() provides another mechanism for terminating the virtual
machine.
chr-testdev is implemented on top of virtio console. If the virtual machine
manager doesn't emulate a virtio console, then chr_testdev_exit() will fail.
If this happens, try to use psci_system_off() to terminate the test.
This patch makes it possible for a virtual machine manager which doesn't
have support for chr-testdev, but has been configured not to emulate a
virtio console, to gracefully terminate a virtual machine after a test has
been completed.
There is one limitation to using psci_system_off() to terminate a test:
chr-testdev allows kvm-unit-tests to specify an exit code;
psci_system_off() has no such mechanism.
