Linus Torvalds fd7e9a8834 4.11 is going to be a relatively large release for KVM, with a little over
200 commits and noteworthy changes for most architectures.
 
 * ARM:
 - GICv3 save/restore
 - cache flushing fixes
 - working MSI injection for GICv3 ITS
 - physical timer emulation
 
 * MIPS:
 - various improvements under the hood
 - support for SMP guests
 - a large rewrite of MMU emulation.  KVM MIPS can now use MMU notifiers
 to support copy-on-write, KSM, idle page tracking, swapping, ballooning
 and everything else.  KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM is also supported, so that
 writes to some memory regions can be treated as MMIO.  The new MMU also
 paves the way for hardware virtualization support.
 
 * PPC:
 - support for POWER9 using the radix-tree MMU for host and guest
 - resizable hashed page table
 - bugfixes.
 
 * s390: expose more features to the guest
 - more SIMD extensions
 - instruction execution protection
 - ESOP2
 
 * x86:
 - improved hashing in the MMU
 - faster PageLRU tracking for Intel CPUs without EPT A/D bits
 - some refactoring of nested VMX entry/exit code, preparing for live
 migration support of nested hypervisors
 - expose yet another AVX512 CPUID bit
 - host-to-guest PTP support
 - refactoring of interrupt injection, with some optimizations thrown in
 and some duct tape removed.
 - remove lazy FPU handling
 - optimizations of user-mode exits
 - optimizations of vcpu_is_preempted() for KVM guests
 
 * generic:
 - alternative signaling mechanism that doesn't pound on tsk->sighand->siglock
