Progress:
* UM-2 [QEMU upstream maintainership]
- Code review: worked through some of the backlog and accumulated
a list of series to take once the tree reopens for 7.0
- Wrote and sent some cleanup patches relating to the qemu-common.h
header file
- Fixed a bug where we miscalculated the length for TLB range
invalidations
* QEMU-420 [GICv4 emulation]
- Found the problem with PCI passthrough in my nested test setup:
apparently virtio PCI devices need an extra command line argument
to get them to honour the presence of an IOMMU. Everything is
now working and I've put some notes about the setup into
https://linaro.atlassian.net/browse/QEMU-447
- started to implement the GICv4 redistributor changes
