Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm

Pull KVM fixes from Radim Krčmář:
 "x86:

   - fix NULL dereference when using userspace lapic

   - optimize spectre v1 mitigations by allowing guests to use LFENCE

   - make microcode revision configurable to prevent guests from
     unnecessarily blacklisting spectre v2 mitigation feature"
