Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm
Pull KVM updates from Gleb Natapov: "The highlights of the release are nested EPT and pv-ticketlocks support (hypervisor part, guest part, which is most of the code, goes through tip tree). Apart of that there are many fixes for all arches" Fix up semantic conflicts as discussed in the pull request thread.. * 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (88 commits) ARM: KVM: Add newlines to panic strings ARM: KVM: Work around older compiler bug ARM: KVM: Simplify tracepoint text ARM: KVM: Fix kvm_set_pte assignment ARM: KVM: vgic: Bump VGIC_NR_IRQS to 256 ARM: KVM: Bugfix: vgic_bytemap_get_reg per cpu regs ARM: KVM: vgic: fix GICD_ICFGRn access ARM: KVM: vgic: simplify vgic_get_target_reg KVM: MMU: remove unused parameter KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Rework kvmppc_mmu_book3s_64_xlate() KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Make instruction fetch fallback work for system calls KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Don't corrupt guest state when kernel uses VMX KVM: x86: update masterclock when kvmclock_offset is calculated (v2) KVM: PPC: Book3S: Fix compile error in XICS emulation KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: return appropriate error when allocation fails arch: powerpc: kvm: add signed type cast for comparation KVM: x86: add comments where MMIO does not return to the emulator KVM: vmx: count exits to userspace during invalid guest emulation KVM: rename __kvm_io_bus_sort_cmp to kvm_io_bus_cmp kvm: optimize away THP checks in kvm_is_mmio_pfn() ...

+ help
+ This enables the Contiguous Memory Allocator which allows other
+ subsystems to allocate big physically-contiguous blocks of memory.
+ CMA reserves a region of memory and allows only movable pages to
+ be allocated from it. This way, the kernel can use the memory for
