   > Is there a reason that you put test files under 
`src/runtime/hexagon/tests/` instead of `tests/cpp/...`?
   
   Short answer:  We need a separate directory from which to include runtime 
tests.
   
   Long answer ...
   
   All files in `tests/cpp/...` are recursively 
[globbed](https://github.com/apache/tvm/blob/c6578834bc34a8721844197df03e0cef83440adf/CMakeLists.txt#L634)
 and added to the `cpptest` executable.  This forces all code tested by 
`cpptest` to have an x86 implementation.  For runtime code, it may or may not 
be possible to have an x86 implementation.  
   
   The `HexagonBuffer` class, for example, was able to have both a Hexagon 
(VTMC allocation via the SDK) and x86 (malloc) implementation and hence was 
testable using `cpptest` on x86.  However, this added some complication to the 
build system which is removed in this PR along with the x86 implementation for 
`HexagonBuffer`.  `HexagonBuffer` is now implemented and tested on Hexagon.
