    Pull first batch of KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
     "The bulk of the changes here is for x86.  And for once it's not for
      silicon that no one owns: these are really new features for everyone.
    
      Details:
    
       - ARM:
            several features are in progress but missed the 4.2 deadline.
            So here is just a smattering of bug fixes, plus enabling the
            VFIO integration.
    
       - s390:
            Some fixes/refactorings/optimizations, plus support for 2GB
            pages.
    
       - x86:
            * host and guest support for marking kvmclock as a stable
              scheduler clock.
            * support for write combining.
            * support for system management mode, needed for secure boot in
              guests.
            * a bunch of cleanups required for the above
            * support for virtualized performance counters on AMD
            * legacy PCI device assignment is deprecated and defaults to "n"
              in Kconfig; VFIO replaces it
    
            On top ...
