Some general thoughts about this test:
 * netperf2 has a fairly good wrapper code, that can do postprocessing
of the results. It'd be good to make use of it. What I was thinking:
   - Import the netperf2 wrapper class on host and call run_once with
appropriate parameters on host
   - Create a client control file and run it on guest using
kvm_test_utils.run_autotest()
   - As this approach wouldn't work on windows, we could make a
netperf_windows test that would be very much like this test.

Of course, we could do that on a later time, I don't think it is
something urgent anyway.

^ test.resultsdir would be better. Also, it's better if we take into
account the fact that we can have more than one iteration of the test,
so we'd have something like:

self.results_path = os.path.join(self.resultsdir, 'raw_output_%s' %self.iteration)

Which is what we are doing currently for other benchmarks.

^ Again I think it'd be better to simply flush the firewall rules with
iptables -F because that's more likely to work on different linux
guests.

Also, this linux specific command makes the entire test linux specific,
so we have to put a rule telling the kvm autotest to not run it on
windows guests.
