[PATCH v8 4/4] KVM: selftests: randomize page access order

[Colton Lewis <coltonlewis@google.com>]

Create the ability to randomize page access order with the -a
argument. This includes the possibility that the same pages may be hit
multiple times during an iteration or not at all.

Population has random access as false to ensure all pages will be
touched by population and avoid page faults in late dirty memory that
would pollute the test results.
