Merge tag 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost
Pull vhost updates from Michael Tsirkin: "virtio, vhost: optimizations, fixes Looks like a quiet cycle for vhost/virtio, just a couple of minor tweaks. Most notable is automatic interrupt affinity for blk and scsi. Hopefully other devices are not far behind" * tag 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost: virtio-console: avoid DMA from stack vhost: introduce O(1) vq metadata cache virtio_scsi: use virtio IRQ affinity virtio_blk: use virtio IRQ affinity blk-mq: provide a default queue mapping for virtio device virtio: provide a method to get the IRQ affinity mask for a virtqueue virtio: allow drivers to request IRQ affinity when creating VQs virtio_pci: simplify MSI-X setup virtio_pci: don't duplicate the msix_enable flag in struct pci_dev virtio_pci: use shared interrupts for virtqueues virtio_pci: remove struct virtio_pci_vq_info vhost: try avoiding avail index access when getting descriptor virtio_mmio: expose header to userspace
