Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm
Pull kvm fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Take care of faults occuring between the PARange and IPA range by
injecting an exception
- Fix S2 faults taken from a host EL0 in protected mode
- Work around Oops caused by a PMU access from a 32bit guest when PMU
has been created. This is a temporary bodge until we fix it for
good.
x86:
- Fix potential races when walking host page table
- Fix shadow page table leak when KVM runs nested
- Work around bug in userspace when KVM synthesizes leaf 0x80000021
on older (pre-EPYC) or Intel processors
Generic (but affects only RISC-V):
- Fix bad user ABI for KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT"
