Linus Torvalds ec30dcf7f4 KVM fixes for v4.17-rc7
PPC:
  - Close a hole which could possibly lead to the host timebase getting
    out of sync.
 
  - Three fixes relating to PTEs and TLB entries for radix guests.
 
  - Fix a bug which could lead to an interrupt never getting delivered
    to the guest, if it is pending for a guest vCPU when the vCPU gets
    offlined.
 
 s390:
  - Fix false negatives in VSIE validity check (Cc stable)
 
 x86:
  - Fix time drift of VMX preemption timer when a guest uses LAPIC timer
    in periodic mode (Cc stable)
 
  - Unconditionally expose CPUID.IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES to allow
    migration from hosts that don't need retpoline mitigation (Cc stable)
 
  - Fix guest crashes on reboot by properly coupling CR4.OSXSAVE and
    CPUID.OSXSAVE (Cc stable)
 
  - Report correct RIP after Hyper-V hypercall #UD (introduced in -rc6)

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
