The vga reset handler overwrites some cirrus registers, causing reboots
to corrupt cirrus state to the point that guests can only bring up 640x480
resolutions.
Fix by adding a dedicated cirrus reset handler (which calls the common vga
handler).

Hypervisors like KVM perform badly while doing mmio on
a loop, because it'll generate an exit on each access.
This is the case with VGA, which results in very bad
performance.
In this patch, we map the linear frame buffer as RAM,
make sure it has dirty region tracking enabled, and then
just let the region to be written.

It'll be reused later by the vga optimization.

unsigned long is too bad of a type. Use ram_addr_t instead.
