1. support "writeback" and "writethru" mode toggling for virtio-blk
conditionally. When starting DM with "writethru" parameter in
virtio-blk, guest OS could not toggle cache mode. When starting DM
with "writeback" parameter in virtio-blk, guest OS could toggle
cache mode.
------------------------------
DM cmdline | toggle support
------------+-----------------
writeback | yes
writethru | no
------------------------------
2. To toggle cache mode, run below command in guest OS:
echo "write back" > /sys/devices/xxx/vdx/cache_type
OR
echo "write through" > /sys/devices/xxx/vdx/cache_type

In writethru mode, guest storage write are reported completed only
when the data has been written to physical storage.
In writeback mode, guest storage write are reported completed when
data is placed in SOS page cache. Needs to be flushed to the
physical storage.
USAGE:
-s x,virtio-blk,<filepath>,writeback
-s x,virtio-blk,<filepath>,writethru
The default mode is *writethru*

The current dm, all non-pci and non-acpi related files are put into
hw/platform directory. This is actually disturbed the meaning of
*platform*. The platform devices are mean of board and SoC specific
non-PCI devices, like usb devices, etc.
This patch refines the ACRN dm directory architecture.
For some common device logic files, likes block_if.c/uart_core.c or
usb_core.c. They will move to hw/ directly.
For platform architecture depended files, create arch/ under root dir.
And create sub-dir arch/x86 for x86 architecture, will create more
architectures in future. The pm.c will move to this new dir.
The hw/acpi will be moved to hw/platform/acpi due to acpi also be
considered as part of platform.
