      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull KVM update from Paolo Bonzini:
       "Fairly small update, but there are some interesting new features.
      
        Common:
           Optional support for adding a small amount of polling on each HLT
           instruction executed in the guest (or equivalent for other
           architectures).  This can improve latency up to 50% on some
           scenarios (e.g. O_DSYNC writes or TCP_RR netperf tests).  This
           also has to be enabled manually for now, but the plan is to
           auto-tune this in the future.
      
        ARM/ARM64:
           The highlights are support for GICv3 emulation and dirty page
           tracking
      
        s390:
           Several optimizations and bugfixes.  Also a first: a feature
           exposed by KVM (UUID and long guest name in /proc/sysinfo) before
           it is available in IBM's hypervisor! :)
      
        MIPS:
           Bugfixes.
      
        x86:
           Support for PML (page modification logging, a new feature in
           Broadwell Xeons that speeds up dirty page tracking), nested
           virtualization improvements (nested APICv---a nice optimization),
           usual round of emulation fixes.
      
           There is also a new option to reduce latency of the TSC deadline
           timer in the guest; this needs to be tuned manually.
      
           Some commits are common between this pull and Catalin's; I see you
           have already included his tree.
      
        Powerpc:
           Nothing yet.
      
           The KVM/PPC changes will come in through the PPC maintainers,
           because I haven't received them yet and I might end up being
           offline for some part of next week"
