Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "First batch of KVM changes for 4.4.
  s390:
     A bunch of fixes and optimizations for interrupt and time handling.
  PPC:
     Mostly bug fixes.
  ARM:
     No big features, but many small fixes and prerequisites including:
      - a number of fixes for the arch-timer
      - introducing proper level-triggered semantics for the arch-timers
      - a series of patches to synchronously halt a guest (prerequisite
        for IRQ forwarding)
      - some tracepoint improvements
      - a tweak for the EL2 panic handlers
      - some more VGIC cleanups getting rid of redundant state
  x86:
     Quite a few changes:
      - support for VT-d posted interrupts (i.e. PCI devices can inject
        interrupts directly into vCPUs).  This introduces a new
        component (in virt/lib/) that connects VFIO and KVM together.
        The same infrastructure will be used for ARM interrupt
        forwarding as well.
      - more Hyper-V features, though the main one Hyper-V synthetic
        interrupt controller will have to wait for 4.5.  These will let
        KVM expose Hyper-V devices.
      - nested virtualization now supports VPID (same as PCID but for
        vCPUs) which makes it quite a bit faster
      - for future hardware that supports NVDIMM, there is support for
        clflushopt, clwb, pcommit
      - support for "split irqchip", i.e.  LAPIC in kernel +
        IOAPIC/PIC/PIT in userspace, which reduces the attack surface of
        the hypervisor
      - obligatory smattering of SMM fixes
      - on the guest side, stable scheduler clock support was rewritten
        to not require help from the hypervisor"
