Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm
Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- some cleanups
- direct physical timer assignment
- cache sanitization for 32-bit guests
s390:
- interrupt cleanup
- introduction of the Guest Information Block
- preparation for processor subfunctions in cpu models
PPC:
- bug fixes and improvements, especially related to machine checks
and protection keys
x86:
- many, many cleanups, including removing a bunch of MMU code for
unnecessary optimizations
- AVIC fixes
Generic:
- memcg accounting"
