       "This is the first batch of KVM changes.
      
        ARM:
         - cleanups and corner case fixes.
      
        PPC:
         - Bugfixes
      
        x86:
         - Support for mapping DAX areas with large nested page table entries.
      
         - Cleanups and bugfixes here too. A particularly important one is a
           fix for FPU load when the thread has TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD. There is
           also a race condition which could be used in guest userspace to
           exploit the guest kernel, for which the embargo expired today.
      
         - Fast path for IPI delivery vmexits, shaving about 200 clock cycles
           from IPI latency.
      
         - Protect against "Spectre-v1/L1TF" (bring data in the cache via
           speculative out of bound accesses, use L1TF on the sibling
           hyperthread to read it), which unfortunately is an even bigger
           whack-a-mole game than SpectreV1.
      
        Sean continues his mission to rewrite KVM. In addition to a sizable
        number of x86 patches, this time he contributed a pretty large
        refactoring of vCPU creation that affects all architectures but should
        not have any visible effect.
      
        s390 will come next week together with some more x86 patches"

      Pull x86 MPX removal from Dave Hansen:
       "MPX requires recompiling applications, which requires compiler
        support. Unfortunately, GCC 9.1 is expected to be be released without
        support for MPX. This means that there was only a relatively small
        window where folks could have ever used MPX. It failed to gain wide
        adoption in the industry, and Linux was the only mainstream OS to ever
        support it widely.
      
        Support for the feature may also disappear on future processors.
      
        This set completes the process that we started during the 5.4 merge
        window when the MPX prctl()s were removed. XSAVE support is left in
        place, which allows MPX-using KVM guests to continue to function"

      Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
       "In this series, we've implemented transparent compression
        experimentally. It supports LZO and LZ4, but will add more later as we
        investigate in the field more.
      
        At this point, the feature doesn't expose compressed space to user
        directly in order to guarantee potential data updates later to the
        space. Instead, the main goal is to reduce data writes to flash disk
        as much as possible, resulting in extending disk life time as well as
        relaxing IO congestion.
      
        Alternatively, we're also considering to add ioctl() to reclaim
        compressed space and show it to user after putting the immutable bit.
      
        Enhancements:
         - add compression support
         - avoid unnecessary locks in quota ops
         - harden power-cut scenario for zoned block devices
         - use private bio_set to avoid IO congestion
         - replace GC mutex with rwsem to serialize callers
      
        Bug fixes:
         - fix dentry consistency and memory corruption in rename()'s error case
         - fix wrong swap extent reports
         - fix casefolding bugs
         - change lock coverage to avoid deadlock
         - avoid GFP_KERNEL under f2fs_lock_op

      From Boris Ostrovsky:
      
      The KVM hypervisor may provide a guest with ability to defer remote TLB
      flush when the remote VCPU is not running. When this feature is used,
      the TLB flush will happen only when the remote VPCU is scheduled to run
      again. This will avoid unnecessary (and expensive) IPIs.
      
      Under certain circumstances, when a guest initiates such deferred action,
      the hypervisor may miss the request. It is also possible that the guest
      may mistakenly assume that it has already marked remote VCPU as needing
      a flush when in fact that request had already been processed by the
      hypervisor. In both cases this will result in an invalid translation
      being present in a vCPU, potentially allowing accesses to memory locations
      in that guest's address space that should not be accessible.
      
      Note that only intra-guest memory is vulnerable.
      
      The five patches address both of these problems:
      1. The first patch makes sure the hypervisor doesn't accidentally clear
      a guest's remote flush request
      2. The rest of the patches prevent the race between hypervisor
      acknowledging a remote flush request and guest issuing a new one.

      There is a potential race in record_steal_time() between setting
      host-local vcpu->arch.st.steal.preempted to zero (i.e. clearing
      KVM_VCPU_PREEMPTED) and propagating this value to the guest with
      kvm_write_guest_cached(). Between those two events the guest may
      still see KVM_VCPU_PREEMPTED in its copy of kvm_steal_time, set
      KVM_VCPU_FLUSH_TLB and assume that hypervisor will do the right
      thing. Which it won't.
      
      Instad of copying, we should map kvm_steal_time and that will
      guarantee atomicity of accesses to @preempted.
      
      This is part of CVE-2019-3016.
