Add a parameter for dirty gfn count for dirty rings. If zero, dirty ring is
disabled. Otherwise dirty ring will be enabled with the per-vcpu gfn count as
specified. If dirty ring cannot be enabled due to unsupported kernel or
illegal parameter, it'll fallback to dirty logging.
By default, dirty ring is not enabled (dirty-gfn-count default to 0).
