Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm
Pull KVM fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Plug race between enabling MTE and creating vcpus
- Fix off-by-one bug when checking whether an address range is RAM
x86:
- Fixes for the new MMU, especially a memory leak on hosts with <39
physical address bits
- Remove bogus EFER.NX checks on 32-bit non-PAE hosts
- WAITPKG fix"

KVM: x86/mmu: Don't step down in the TDP iterator when zapping all SPTEs
KVM: x86/mmu: Don't leak non-leaf SPTEs when zapping all SPTEs
KVM: nVMX: Use vmx_need_pf_intercept() when deciding if L0 wants a #PF
kvm: vmx: Sync all matching EPTPs when injecting nested EPT fault
KVM: x86: remove dead initialization
KVM: x86: Allow guest to set EFER.NX=1 on non-PAE 32-bit kernels
