Pull kvm fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
"Two serious ARM fixes:
- Plug a buffer overflow due to the use of the user-provided register
width for firmware regs. Outright reject accesses where the user
register width does not match the kernel representation.
- Protect non-atomic RMW operations on vCPU flags against preemption,
as an update to the flags by an intervening preemption could be
lost"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
