[PATCH v8 17/16] x86/vm_event: add response flag to reset vmtrace buffer



From: Tamas K Lengyel <tamas.lengyel@xxxxxxxxx>

Allow resetting the vmtrace buffer in response to a vm_event. This can be used
to optimize a use-case where detecting a looped vmtrace buffer is important.

Signed-off-by: Tamas K Lengyel <tamas.lengyel@xxxxxxxxx>

This is a last minute addition to the series "acquire_resource size and
external IPT monitoring" posted by Andrew, new in v8.
