Merge tag 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost
Pull virtio updates from Michael Tsirkin:
"virtio, vhost: new device, fixes, speedups
This includes the new virtio crypto device, and fixes all over the
place. In particular enabling endian-ness checks for sparse builds
found some bugs which this fixes. And it appears that everyone is in
agreement that disabling endian-ness sparse checks shouldn't be
necessary any longer.
So this enables them for everyone, and drops the __CHECK_ENDIAN__ and
__bitwise__ APIs.
IRQ handling in virtio has been refactored somewhat, the larger switch
to IRQ_SHARED will have to wait as it proved too aggressive"
