Pull second batch of KVM updates from Radim Krčmář:
"General:
- move kvm_stat tool from QEMU repo into tools/kvm/kvm_stat (kvm_stat
had nothing to do with QEMU in the first place -- the tool only
interprets debugfs)
- expose per-vm statistics in debugfs and support them in kvm_stat
(KVM always collected per-vm statistics, but they were summarised
into global statistics)
x86:
- fix dynamic APICv (VMX was improperly configured and a guest could
access host's APIC MSRs, CVE-2016-4440)
- minor fixes
ARM changes from Christoffer Dall:
- new vgic reimplementation of our horribly broken legacy vgic
implementation. The two implementations will live side-by-side
(with the new being the configured default) for one kernel release
and then we'll remove the legacy one.
- fix for a non-critical issue with virtual abort injection to guests"

Before this patch, a simple 'perf record' could fail if kptr_restrict is
set to 1 (for normal user) or 2 (for root):
# perf record ls
WARNING: Kernel address maps (/proc/{kallsyms,modules}) are restricted,
check /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict.
Samples in kernel functions may not be resolved if a suitable vmlinux
file is not found in the buildid cache or in the vmlinux path.
Samples in kernel modules won't be resolved at all.

even with a suitable vmlinux or kallsyms file.

This tool displays kvm vm exit statistics to ease vm monitoring. It
takes its data from the kvm debugfs files or the vm tracepoints and
outputs them as a curses ui or simple text.
It was moved from qemu, as it is dependent on the kernel whereas qemu
works with a large number of kernel versions, some of which may break
the script.

record__mmap_read() writes data from ring buffer into perf.data. 'head'
is maintained by the kernel, points to the last written record.
'old' is maintained by perf, points to the record read in previous
round. record__mmap_read() saves data from 'old' to 'head' to
perf.data.
The names of these variables are not very intutive. In addition,
when dealing with backward writing ring buffer, the md->prev pointer
should point to 'head' instead of the last byte it got.
Add 'start' and 'end' pointer to make code clear and set md->prev to
'head' instead of the moved 'old' pointer. This patch doesn't change
behavior since:
buf = &data[old & md->mask];
size = head - old;
old += size; <--- Here, old == head

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this update was stabilized before the merge window and
appeared in -next. The "device dax" implementation was revised this
week in response to review feedback, and to address failures detected
by the recently expanded ndctl unit test suite.
Not included in this pull request are two dax topic branches (dax
error handling, and dax radix-tree locking). These topics were
deferred to get a few more days of -next integration testing, and to
coordinate a branch baseline with Ted and the ext4 tree. Vishal and
Ross will send the error handling and locking topics respectively in
the next few days.
This branch has received a positive build result from the kbuild robot
across 226 configs.
Summary:
- Device DAX for persistent memory: Device DAX is the device-centric
analogue of Filesystem DAX (CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory
ranges to be allocated and mapped without need of an intervening
file system. Device DAX is strict, precise and predictable.
Specifically this interface:
a) Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size
(pte, pmd, or pud) set at configuration time.
b) Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what
fault scenarios are supported.
Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also
targeted for exclusive allocations of performance/feature
differentiated memory ranges.
- Support for the HPE DSM (device specific method) command formats.
This enables management of these first generation devices until a
unified DSM specification materializes.
- Further ACPI 6.1 compliance with support for the common dimm
identifier format.
- Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem"
