       "ARM:
         - HYP mode stub supports kexec/kdump on 32-bit
         - improved PMU support
         - virtual interrupt controller performance improvements
         - support for userspace virtual interrupt controller (slower, but
           necessary for KVM on the weird Broadcom SoCs used by the Raspberry
           Pi 3)
      
        MIPS:
         - basic support for hardware virtualization (ImgTec P5600/P6600/I6400
           and Cavium Octeon III)
      
        PPC:
         - in-kernel acceleration for VFIO
      
        s390:
         - support for guests without storage keys
         - adapter interruption suppression
      
        x86:
         - usual range of nVMX improvements, notably nested EPT support for
           accessed and dirty bits
         - emulation of CPL3 CPUID faulting
      
        generic:
         - first part of VCPU thread request API
         - kvm_stat improvements"

       "Lots of little things this time:
      
         - allow modules to be autoloaded according to the HWCAP feature bits
           (used primarily for crypto modules)
      
         - split module core and init PLT sections, since the core code and
           init code could be placed far apart, and the PLT sections need to
           be local to the code block.
      
         - three patches from Chris Brandt to allow Cortex-A9 L2 cache
           optimisations to be disabled where a SoC didn't wire up the out of
           band signals.
      
         - NoMMU compliance fixes, avoiding corruption of vector table which
           is not being used at this point, and avoiding possible register
           state corruption when switching mode.
      
         - fixmap memory attribute compliance update.
      
         - remove unnecessary locking from update_sections_early()
      
         - ftrace fix for DEBUG_RODATA with !FRAME_POINTER"

      Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
       "In this round, we've focused on enhancing performance with regards to
        block allocation, GC, and discard/in-place-update IO controls. There
        are a bunch of clean-ups as well as minor bug fixes.
      
        Enhancements:
         - disable heap-based allocation by default
         - issue small-sized discard commands by default
         - change the policy of data hotness for logging
         - distinguish IOs in terms of size and wbc type
         - start SSR earlier to avoid foreground GC
         - enhance data structures managing discard commands
         - enhance in-place update flow
         - add some more fault injection routines
         - secure one more xattr entry
      
        Bug fixes:
         - calculate victim cost for GC correctly
         - remain correct victim segment number for GC
         - race condition in nid allocator and initializer
         - stale pointer produced by atomic_writes
         - fix missing REQ_SYNC for flush commands
         - handle missing errors in more corner cases"
