== clean-up-kvm-patches == * patches as they stand look good; currently blocked waiting for changes to go into kernel side == track-kvm-abi-changes == * thinking about some interesting corner cases in accessing cp15 state via KVM, notably how userspace should get at the cache ID registers, which are exposed by hardware as a "select" and "read value of selected register" cp15 register pair. Consensus seems to be that the kernel should deal with converting this into a simple interface that userspace can use to just read all the ID register state at once. == other == * fixed breakage in ARM TCG host support (recent changes had failed to account for the ABI requirement that 64 bit arguments to functions must be passed in even-odd register pairs) * KVM bootwrapper: pushed 64-bit-addresses-in-dtb patch to main repo; reviewed patch from Guodong Xu adding uInitrd support
