Now that we have Eager Page Split support added for ARM in the kernel, enable it in Qemu. This adds, -eager-split-size to -accel sub-options to set the eager page split chunk size. -enable KVM_CAP_ARM_EAGER_SPLIT_CHUNK_SIZE. The chunk size specifies how many pages to break at a time, using a single allocation. Bigger the chunk size, more pages need to be allocated ahead of time.
