Pull KVM fixes from Paolo Bonzini: "More fixes for ARM and x86" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: KVM: LAPIC: Advancing the timer expiration on guest initiated write KVM: x86/mmu: Skip !MMU-present SPTEs when removing SP in exclusive mode KVM: kvmclock: Fix vCPUs > 64 can't be online/hotpluged kvm: x86: annotate RCU pointers KVM: arm64: Fix exclusive limit for IPA size KVM: arm64: Reject VM creation when the default IPA size is unsupported KVM: arm64: Ensure I-cache isolation between vcpus of a same VM KVM: arm64: Don't use cbz/adr with external symbols KVM: arm64: Fix range alignment when walking page tables KVM: arm64: Workaround firmware wrongly advertising GICv2-on-v3 compatibility KVM: arm64: Rename __vgic_v3_get_ich_vtr_el2() to __vgic_v3_get_gic_config() KVM: arm64: Don't access PMSELR_EL0/PMUSERENR_EL0 when no PMU is available KVM: arm64: Turn kvm_arm_support_pmu_v3() into a static key KVM: arm64: Fix nVHE hyp panic host context restore KVM: arm64: Avoid corrupting vCPU context register in guest exit KVM: arm64: nvhe: Save the SPE context early kvm: x86: use NULL instead of using plain integer as pointer KVM: SVM: Connect 'npt' module param to KVM's internal 'npt_enabled' KVM: x86: Ensure deadline timer has truly expired before posting its IRQ
